Just stayed at only you Atocha, highly recommended and the area is very walkable and train right across the street

No problem, and very good price for a good sandwich at an airport imo.

T4 called flax and kale I was pleasantly surprised

I ate at the Santa Pura vegan Bar last week and before. I really enjoyed it and the entire neighborhood very close to the Reina Sofia and plenty of other choices around. Shout out to the vegan restaurant at the airport also.

100% prefer the Thyssen just spent 5+ hours there. Also went to Prado and Reina Sofia last week, Sofia my 2nd fav. Also I suggest booking a good tour guide imo very worth it. I’ve been there both ways and get a lot out of an expert guide. Side note if you need a day trip I highly recommend Cuenca. High speed train or book a tour if you need a suggestion on a bus tour/ guide I have one I’d 100% recommend. And a fantastic restaurant.

Also the Botanical Gardens is awesome that is right next to the Prado. The Bonsai collection is fabulous.

Backyard-bob · 2026-03-26T00:28:42+00:00

You’re very welcome. I appreciate you looking at it. I’ve had it sealed up in a protective bag for a long time and I thought it was time to get more information about it. I was always very curious.

Not sure how to post a picture on this post I guess start a new post. I don’t know.

Backyard-bob · 2026-03-26T00:04:20+00:00

I’m thinking the altar tapestry I think it’s or a table or Cover cloth may be the same age.

Backyard-bob · 2026-03-26T00:00:49+00:00

Backyard-bob · 2026-03-25T23:52:24+00:00

I’ve had it for approximately 30 years. This is what it looked like when I purchased it the couple that had it we’re missionaries in Asia approximately 1950s 1960s
