Do you like online quizzes which come with a chance to win a surprise?  If so you may like to get quizzical with Radisson Blu Hotels.  They are running a quiz at the moment and the major prize they are offering is a weekend for two at their hotel in one of five stunning European locations.

The game is really straightforward (and not very difficult, but don’t tell the organisers that!).  You get three questions and each has three possible answers.  If you get all three correct then you are entered in to a prize draw.  As well as the top prizes you stand to win gift vouchers up to the value of a hundred Euros.

There are some terms and conditions, of course, but if you are over 18 and live in the European Union or the European Economic Area you will probably be eligible.



I have been scratching my head and wondering where I would go if I won one of the major prizes. The answer – although it was a difficult one to come to – would have to be Madrid.  The capital and largest city in Spain, it has everything I would look for in terms of a great weekend away.



Above all else it is a city which positively drips with culture.  While not enjoying the wonderful surroundings of the Radisson Blu Hotel I would make sure to fill my time with trips to some of its amazing places.  



The two museums I would have to visit are the Museo del Prado and the Museo Reina Sofía.  They are full of treasures from the world over as well as from Spain itself.



I know that to visit a city for its museums is not the ideal for everybody but, rest assured, Madrid is a bustling, lively city.  Whatever you want from a weekend away you are likely to find it there.
