Retiro Park

Madrid's central park — rent a rowboat on the lake, watch street performers, and let the kids run. Locals come here on Sunday mornings.

Prado Museum — Kids' Highlights Tour

Don't attempt all of it. Focus: Velázquez's Las Meninas, Goya's Saturn, and the Egyptian Temple of Debod nearby. 90 minutes max with kids.

Puerta del Sol

Madrid's central square — the 'km 0' of all Spanish roads. Walk to the bear statue, catch the atmosphere, then head into the lanes behind.

Mercado de San Miguel

The finest food market in the city. Order jamón, tortilla, croquetas and share everything. Go at noon when it's buzzing.

Royal Palace

The largest royal palace in Western Europe by floor area. The frescoed ceilings alone justify the visit. Kids like the armour collection.

El Rastro Flea Market

Madrid's famous Sunday flea market. 3,000+ stalls. Great for vintage finds, ceramics and people-watching. Go early before it gets too crowded.

Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum

More manageable than the Prado for kids — focus on the Impressionist rooms. Monet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Hopper. 1 hour is enough.
