Madrid

As Spain’s capital and largest city, Madrid shines bright as a classic European city destination, immersed in the heart of Spain’s beauty, infused with world-renown museums like the Prado and iconic landmarks like El Retiro Park. 

Behind the hustle and bustle Madrid atmosphere, however, Madrid continues to proudly celebrate Spain’s storied heritage, hanging on to long-held cherished traditions and Spain’s cultural soul.  Like the locals, known as the Madrilenos, you too can experience Madrid’s enchanting traditional ambiance.   

For example, the typical Madrilenos lifestyle includes frequenting Madrid’s cafés at popular spots like the Plaza Mayor to socialize with family and friends, people-watching at the Puerta del Sol, sharing sangria and paella at one of the many outstanding restaurants.

Another traditional favorite is strolling the narrow pedestrianized streets of the La Latina neighborhood during happy hour, where tapas bars offer a smorgasbord of delicious hors d’oeuvres and small plates, accompanied by wafting romantic Andalusian guitar strains heard in the background.
