'Despues' is followed by 'de' when it precedes a noun, and 'de' + 'el' = 'del', so, 'after the museum' is 'despues del museo.
Hola :)
Hola, I'm working on lesson 25, level 1. Can someone please remind me why we say del museo rather than el museo. As in despues del museo.
Thank you!!!!!
Thank you!!!!!

Hi, I just wanted to add that "antes" works like "después": antes/después del museo.

Despues de is an expression that isn't to be taken literally word for word in English. Since de + el occur together, you have to form the contraction del for it to make grammatical sense.
