ok. I have to admit I'm not a big fan of modern art. Picasso and Dalí are amazing. but most of the exposition got me a bit amused not in a good way. if you are a classic art lover you'd better go to Prada museum

Be sure to visit, very impressive and lots of contemporary art. The huge selection is also perfect for entertaining yourself, although you should probably take your time for that - even for the queue. The queue is enormous (and you‘ll know why); even with purchased tickets it might still take a while.

If you come, be prepared for a lot of waiting. Even if you buy your tickets online, you'll still have the potential for an hour or two wait just to get in. Then there's more waiting inside to get the audio guide from the single, under staffed desk. More waiting for the elevators. More waiting for the restrooms. I went on a weekday, but if it gets busier on the weekends? Maybe skip it. All that said, the art inside is beautiful. Guernica is one of a kind, and so are many of the other works on display here. It's almost worth the wait. Almost.

The exhibition has some of the most famous modern artists! It is well thought out and the nice garden in the center offers a nice place to rest between display rooms. The place is terribly packed, though, and the only way to access the upper floor where the temporary exhibition is is through very slow elevators, that have a capacity of 8 people (more than that and the weight alarm goes off). It felt like I spent a similar amount of time queuing for entering and moving around, and appreciating the art.

Beautiful art gallery with a lot of amazing pieces. Of course must have in Madrid. But less interesting for children (lack of food , interactive places or something how to keep their attention). Some minor modification will make this crowded gallery more attractive for families. Anyhow you will be satisfied in art meaning of the word.
