In addition to being the capital of Spain, Madrid is also the home of the Spanish Royal Family and a major commercial hub of the region. It is also a tourist hotspot because of the variety of cultural and artistic activity and its lively nightlife.
When in Madrid, do visit the Corral de la Moreria to experience the best of Flamenco dancing. Sports fans should try to catch a football match at the Vicente Calderón stadium. A visit to the Gran Vía is a must for those who wish to experience Madrid’s famed nightlife.
The city is also home to many fine museums and monuments including the Museo del Prado, Reina Sofía National Museum and Art Centre, Palacio Real, Catedral de la Almudena, Museum of the City and Debod Temple.
Madrid also hosts many elaborate festivals; the month-long Fiestas de San Isidro is the most fascinating and lively of these festivals. It is held every year in the month of May.
