9 Best Museums in Madrid | Condé Nast Traveler

"This cultural exhibition center, just across the street from the Prado , is a modern space with rotating exhibitions and the city’s first vertical garden. Once an electric factory, the building now sports shockingly modern interiors, complete with a shiny steel stairway with a reflective design. Still, the exhibitions here run the gamut from traditional painters to more polemic topics such as the story of refugees in Spain. The latest exhibitions include a series of Toulouse-Lautrec paintings outlining his experiences in the Paris Montmartre neighborhood. While not on the tip of every visitor’s tongue—it’s pronounced “Cayysha” by the way—the museum is worth a look. You can get through any of the exhibitions in a couple of hours, making it a great backup choice if the lines are too daunting at the Prado ." - Ramsey Qubein
