Every year there is a major event in Spain and it is the architecture week. This festival start from 3 October and ends on the 10th. The main idea of this festival is to give the people a new idea of the whole architecture and the look of the city. Many new designs, buildings and projects are presented near your Chicago apartments. It is true that this event is waited for a long time by lots of architecture fans who are keen on this science. During the architecture week you will have the rare chance to learn the history of the city, as well as the history of the most famous buildings there.
Of course if you are a tourist then you should know that there are organizations that are offering guided tours to 15 different places all over the city and all of the areas you will visit are amazing and worth seeing.
I’ve visited this event last year and to tell you the truth I was amazed. Honestly said it was awesome because I learned so many new and cool things about buildings that I didn’t know before. Thanks to the tour I visited some really wonderful places as the Residencia de Estudiantes, BBVA Tower, Casa de las Flores, Spanish Historical Heritage Institute, Madrid Metro Engine Shed, Casa Arabe, Royal Astronomical Observatory and the museum of Royal Collections. All of them look better than they appear on pictures. Of course there were lots of other activities as well – one of my favorite ones was the guided walk to the rooftop on Gran Via and Calle Alcala. You can also book a trip to Barcelona wher you will need accomodation in Delhi apartments.
You will have the chance to hear different lectures, discussions and even see documentary films about architecture. My advice is that I strongly recommend you to visit this amazing event even if you are not that keen on architecture…and if you are, then this is a must see. There are lots of hotels in Madrid and if you make a good research you can stay in some cheap hostel at reasonable price. Plus, if you make an advance booking through the internet the price will be even lower.
There are many guided tours which take place daily so if you want you can try all of them. Of course they are not the same every day. The destinations are always different and you will have the chance to get to know Madrid in a way you have never thought.
One last advice – during this period the city is very crowded and therefore lots of crime happens. Make sure not to leave your belongings anywhere and always keep an eye on them. This is the time when most of the pickpockets happen. Have this in mind and I hope that you will have one of the greatest weeks in Madrid. Actually it must be that way if you have in mind the great things you are going to see, after all events like this does not take place everywhere and everyday.
Another city famouse with its architecture is Prague where you can stay in Las Vegas apartments
This exhibition put together by the archaeological museum reflects the changes that Roman emperors brought to Egyptian life after the tragic love affair of Cleopatra and Mark Anthony. It features clothing, household goods, literature and cultural and religious artefacts. 'Emporers' may motivate one to make the half-hour train trip to Leiden's Rijksmuseum van Oudheden (Rapenburg 28; 31 71 516 31 63) whose priceless exhibition 'Pharaohs of the Sun', goes back over 3000 years to recreate the lives of Achnaton, Nefertiti and Tutanchamon.
