Cultural Programme
It takes place in the evening, and its aim is activating the language in real contexts. Our cultural activities range from visiting our famous museums to participating in the widely known "swinging Madrid", a chance which enables the students to make friends and to be acquainted with Spaniards from all over Spain since, in this city, everybody is always welcome. At weekends, excursions to places of historical cultural interest (El Escorial, Toledo, Aranjuez, Segovia, etc) are organised. These visits will help the students increase their own culture.
Madrid. Language and Culture
Madrid is one of the cities in the world whose business and cultural activities are most developed. It combines the professional and business world with the pleasure provided by its varied offers for entertainment and cultural enrichment.
If you are keen on painting, Madrid will fully satisfy your interest by giving yu the opportunity of visiting the three centres which make up the "Triángulo de Oro del Arte" (Golden Triangle of Art): our worldwide known El Prado Museum, the "Centro de Arte Reina Sofía" National Museum, and Thyssen Bornemisza´s Museum.
If you are a music lover, you will find different options, amongst classical, pop music and the typically Spanish musical expression "flamenco".
And most important of all is that Madrid hospitality is such that visitors feel at home and, before leaving, they are already thinking of coming back.
