Travel Trivia Tuesday 48

Kathryn! Well done! That is exactly correct! The official name for the construction not due for completion until 2026 was The Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família by Antoni Gaudi!Now for this week's question...Madrid is the capital city of Spain and the third most populous municipality in the EU. It is right in the centre of Spain and has a population of about 3.2 million people. There are many beautiful sights to see in Madrid such as the Royal Palace of Madrid which is the official residency of the King of Spain, The Royal Theatre and the restored Opera House which has seventeen shows per year, the National Library which is the largest in Spain, founded in 1712 and Prado museum which is a museum of modern art to name just a few.But what we want to know this week is... The name Madrid comes from the Arabic 'magerit' which means 'place of many streams'. Is this true or false?
