Madrid’s Royal Botanical Garden is located in front of the Prado Museum. Study like hundreds of Madrid students before you: sitting under the shade of a tree in the 8-hectare botanical garden which is organised into three outdoor terraces and has around 1,500 trees to choose from.

The gardens of El Retiro host an annual book fair plus plenty of concerts popular with students and locals. Pack a picnic and then take it in turns to row around the lake whilst you and your friend take it in turns to study or test each other’s memory with a rapid-fire round of questions.

Loved from its home city of Brussels to New York’s Brooklyn, Le Pain Quotidien’s branch five minutes walk away from our Wunderhouse Madrid residence is good for group study sessions at their big, communal table stretching down the middle of the room.

Whether you want to browse (and buy) books or simply prefer to sit in the café and make the most of their WiFi for a focused study session, this is arguably one of the best bookshops in Madrid. There are also plenty of in-store events that are worth checking out when you’ve finished studying.

The National Library of Spain, isn’t only the largest library in Spain, it’s also one of the biggest and most impressive libraries in the world. It’s hard not to be inspired by the architecture alone. Open until late, it’s practically a prerequisite to enjoy a weekly visit here when you study in Madrid.

Spain’s main national art museum houses one of the best collections of European art dating from the 12th Century to the early 19th Century.

In winter, if you’re craving a tropical fix, you only have to travel as far as the Atocha train station. The large indoor garden at the station is lined with benches where you can sit in the middle of the ‘urban jungle’ and enjoy some uninterrupted study time.
