5 min
Royal Palace of Madrid
The Royal Palace stands on the site of the former Alcázar of Madrid, a fortress turned palace by Juan II, Carlos V, and Felipe II, who made it the monarchy’s official residence in 1561. The Alcázar burned down on Christmas Eve 1734. Felipe V commissioned a new palace designed by Filippo Juvarra, completed by Giambattista Sacchetti after Juvarra’s death. The palace features multiple floors and domes built without wood, housing royal offices and staff.
5 min
La Latina
La Latina’s narrow, winding streets mostly date to the Middle Ages and often lead to squares. Originally outside the medieval city walls, it housed many merchants who sold goods at markets. This commercial past is reflected in street names like Plaza de la Cebada and Plaza de los Carros. The area includes El Rastro, Madrid’s best-known flea market.
5 min
Barrio de Las Letras
In the 17th century Spanish Golden Age, famous authors such as Cervantes and Lope de Vega lived in this neighborhood, which is named for its literary history. Some streets honor these writers and other important chapters of Spanish culture and art.
5 min
Paseo Del Prado
Paseo del Arte, or the Golden Triangle of Art, spans about 2 kilometers and includes the Prado Museum, Thyssen-Bornemisza National Collection, and Reina Sofía Museum. The boulevard runs along Paseo del Prado and neighboring streets. The area was once open meadows and included the Buen Retiro Palace built by King Philip IV.
5 min
Parque del Retiro
Retiro Park covers over 125 hectares and has more than 15,000 trees. It contains monuments and gardens such as the Jardines de Cecilio Rodríguez, Rosaleda rose garden, and the Parterre Francés, which features Madrid’s oldest tree, a nearly 400-year-old Mexican conifer. The park has an artificial lake and the Velázquez and Glass Palaces, which serve as exhibition halls for the Reina Sofía Museum. The Fallen Angel statue is located near the Rose Garden at 666 meters above sea level.
20 min
Malasana
Malasaña is named after Manuela Malasaña, a heroine and victim of the 1808 uprising against Napoleon’s occupation. Plaza del Dos de Mayo commemorates this rebellion led by officers Luis Daoíz and Pedro Velarde. In the 1980s, Malasaña was the center of the movida madrileña, an underground cultural movement.
5 min
Templo de Debod
The Templo de Debod offers a sweeping view of Madrid’s outskirts toward the Guadarrama mountain range. It is a popular spot to visit at sunset.
