[quote=Anonymous]The Prado, Museo Reina Sofia, and other museums are free for kids under 18 and students up to 25 years old. Many museums in Madrid (maybe BCN too?) also have a deal where if you have a long distance train ticket, you get free admission to various museums 48 hours before/after travel--just present your ticket.

Renfe, the spanish version of amtrak, is running their summer 15 euros a ticket sale for several destinations, including Barcelona, from Madrid. For an extra euro, pick Elige class which allows you to make changes to your ticket. You simply cannot beat that price, book directly on renfe.es. Sale ends July 1, travel between july 22 and sept 8. https://www.renfe.com/es/en

I like checking out the cultural offerings at the Matadero de Madrid, they have a lot of avant-garde exhibits, concerts, theater performances, etc and it's a nice space (although can be verrrrrry hot outside, so better visited in the evening).

Madrid puts on a lot of cultural programming in summer called Veranos en la Villa, a good opportunity to take in some great flamenco at cheap prices: https://www.veranosdelavilla.com/en

In Madrid, the "empanada de hojaldre" (flakey pastry empanada) at the Antigua Pastelería del Pozo off the Puerta del Sol is the very best empanada I've ever eaten. All their pastries are very good. https://antiguapasteleriadelpozo.com[/quote]
