What is the Prado museum famous for? Plenty! Here are the highlights and things you need to know before your visit.
The Museo Nacional del Prado boats the best collection of Spanish art and some of the nicest collections of European art with over 8,200 drawings, 7,600 paintings, 4,800 prints, and 1,000 sculptures. In this video, I’ll share the Prado museum highlights along with helpful tips regarding the hours, admission – including how to get free admission to the Prado – and more.
I was lucky enough to visit the museum during my last birthday adventure to Madrid, Spain to soak up famous paintings like Las Meninas, The Garden of Earthly Delights, and other wondrous pieces of art from all around Europe.
Enjoy!

Hi Antoinette! I always dreamed of visiting the Prado! The art there is just unbelievable.
I'll probably spend days just with the Velázquez!😀

Prado Museum is hands down one of my favorite art museums in the world. Thanks,
Hi, nice video.
I used to go to class not far from the museum and it was free for students, so I went from time to time. I know that Las Meninas it’s the jewel of the crown, but Las Hilanderas its also one of mi favorites.
It’s been at least 5 years since the last time, I think it’s time to come back.
PD: I know that I have a problem with commas and periods when I’m writing English 😂
I can't wait to go visit in 2 weeks, all the best!
Currently in Madrid now on my first day so thank you for sharing this ✨🙏🏾
