This is a guide book about Madrid which is not big but it contains the necessary information for a trip to Madrid, Spain. I will travel to Madrid this February so it was useful for me to read this guide and get to know about this city, main historic monuments, shopping, eating, transport and acommodation and possible day trips. The guide also contain maps.
This is a regular travel guide. I don't think it is any better than the others. On a second thought, there are better. And the language guide is quite ridiculous.
