Historias de Madrid. Desventuras de un turista en Madrid para acercarse a las exposiciones del Paseo del Arte en Domingo.
Pues bien empecemos repitiendo lo que dice el título del post "turista en Madrid". Es decir todo lo que aquí se comenta tiene este punto de vista subjetivo, si bien con una matización sobre la palabra turista , el que escribe vivió casi treinta años en Madrid
Continuar señalando que el comentario se refiere a esa zona, considerada en su sentido amplio llamado el Paseo del Arte y, en espacio temporal, me refiero al domingo quizás el día mas utilizado para visitar museos y salas de arte
Veamos y avisemos para que cada uno piense lo que se va a encontrar y busque, si es que la hay, solución al problema.
Con la peatonalización del Paseo del Prado los domingos por la mañana se bloquea uno de los accesos en coche para llegar al parking del Thyssen, el más próximo y con ello al Thyssen y al Prado.
Ojo, o como hoy, se bloquean más zonas como sucede con el Paseo de Recoletos - la Biblioteca Nacional, lo que produce un gran atasco en sus zonas aledañas.
¿Ir en bici? Pues va a ser que no. Edad, con el correspondiente estado fisico natural de una persona de más de 60 años, lo impiden y como que los treinta grados de temperatura no lo aconsejan por motivos de salud. Mi mujer dice lo mismo aunque con, digamos, otro tono.
¿Aplicación Car2go, Emove, Uber, Cabify?. Vengo de una ciudad donde no existe ninguno de esos servicios luego tendria que darme de alta lo que, por pocos días en el año, no merece la pena.
¿Bus? Pues supone un saber moverse......por los atascos que sufre esa zona por las restricciones de tráfico.
¿Taxi? Pues casi igual que el bus solo que a más atasco, más costo.
¿Que te lleven en coche particular? Pues difícil es, primero necesitas al familiar o amigo que.......no conoce la zona pues NO suele ir por ella por las multas de la zona APAR , áreas de prioridad residencial donde la facilidad de ser multado es máxima al menor error. Lo segundo es que no se libra de los atascos.
¿Andar? Un poco sí, pero Madrid a 30º andando, por decirlo suavemente, es un sudor.
Resumen:
Salí, perdí el tiempo, el humor, no ví las exposiciones y volví a mi punto de salida, con "malhumor".
- Nunca en mi vida volví a mi punto de partida, dos horas después de salir, sin siquiera ver una exposición de las previstas para el día.
Si quiere ver exposiciones en Madrid , en domingo, en la zona de los Museos,
Piénselo.....mucho...mucho.
Hoy, más que nunca, se puede decir " De Madrid al cielo" pues eso es lo que supone moverse por Madrid, ganarse el cielo.

Well let's start repeating what the title of the post "tourist in Madrid" says. That is to say everything that is said here has this subjective point
of view, although with a qualification about the word tourist, the one
who writes lived almost thirty years in Madrid
Continue to point out that the commentary refers to that area, considered in its broad sense called the Paseo del Arte and, in temporal space, I mean Sunday perhaps the most used day to visit museums and art rooms
Let's see and let each one think what is going to be found and look for, if there is one, a solution to the problem.
With the pedestrianization of the Paseo del Prado on Sunday mornings one of the accesses by car is blocked to arrive at the parking lot of the Thyssen, and with it the Thyssen and the Prado.
Ojo, or like today, are blocked more areas as it happens with the Paseo de Recoletos - the National Library, which produces a great jam in its surrounding areas.
Cycling? Well, it will not be. Age, with the corresponding natural physical state of a person over 60 years, prevent it and like that the thirty degrees of temperature do not advise it for health reasons. My wife says the same thing with, say, another tone.
Application Car2go, Emove, Uber, Cabify ?. I come from a city where none of these services exist then I would have to register what, for a few days in the year, is not worth it.
Bus? Well it supposes a knowing to move ...... by the traffic jams that suffers that zone by the restrictions of traffic.
Cab? As almost as the bus only to more jam, more cost.
That they take you by private car? As difficult is, first you need the family member or friend who ....... does not know the area because it is not usually for her because of the fines in the APAR area, areas of residential priority where the facility to be fined is maximum to the minor error. The second is that you do not get rid of traffic jams.
Walk? A little yes, but Madrid at 30º walk, to put it mildly, is a sweat.Summary:
I went out, lost my time, my humor, I did not see the exhibitions and I returned to my starting point, with "bad mood".
Never in my life did I return to my starting point, two hours after leaving, without even seeing an exhibition of those planned for the day.
If you want to see exhibitions in Madrid, on Sunday, in the Museum area,
Think about it ..... a lot ... a lot.
Today, more than ever, you can say "From Madrid to heaven" because that is what it means to move around Madrid, to win the sky.
