The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, which houses many 19th century impressionist paintings, has become a "Chinese Friendly" place of interest in Spain.

The museum, part of Madrid's "Golden Triangle of Art" along with the Prado and the Reina Sofia national galleries, follows the capital's Ritz Hotel in becoming a model for cultural communication between China and Spain by making its facilities more accessible for Chinese visitors.

Other "Chinese Friendly" museums and cultural sites include the Flamenco Dance Museum in Sevilla, Colonia Guell and Bellesguard Tower in Barcelona, and the Interactive Museum of Music in Malaga.

The number of Chinese visitors to Spain increased 35 percent to more than 200,000 in 2013, making China the fastest growing tourism market for Spain.
