A visitor steps through the Prado’s heavy doors and the city noise falls away; sunlight on Calle de Ruiz de Alarcón gives way to cool galleries where Velázquez’s brushstrokes still command silence. This 90-minute guided tour moves at a purposeful pace, placing the most influential Spanish and Flemish works within reach: Las Meninas, Goya’s later portraits, and Ruben’s baroque canvases, all framed by the museum’s neoclassical halls.
