It’s the home to Spanish Kings and Queens. It has a great medieval center to explore. Its museums are among the greatest in the world, and it has plenty of tapas bars and nightclubs.

Let’s start in the Puerto del Sol. This is one of Madrid’s most important squares. It’s a great central location to start from. In fact it’s the point in Spain from which all distances are measured. There are many hotels in the vicinity. You can catch the subway here or just walk to the main sights. It’s centrally located between the Plaza Mayor and the Royal Palace in one direction and the museums in the other direction.
