The City

Madrid has been the capital city of Spain since 1562 and has more than 3,000,000

inhabitants. It is a city oozing with a vibrance and energy unmatched by any other European capital.

The city is extremely compact and located in the centre of Spain. Because of this convenient location people can get to any part of the country in approximately 5 hours by car. Madrid is a city full of contrasts where the old "barrios" of La Latina and Malasaña mix their ancient character with the modern architecture of La Castellana and the Torre Picasso.

Madrid is an influential financial and political centre where important events take place every day. Madrid has been able to find a balance with the respect and conservation of its old traditions and the demands of modern times. It is one of the leading European cities in terms of green areas, such as the Parque del Retiro and the Parque del Oeste.

All year long Madrid offers a great variety of events such as exhibitions, football matches, concerts, opera, "zarzuela", theatre, cinema, bullfights etc.

The nightlife is unmatched by other European cities and is very crowded with people of all ages having good times in restaurants, clubs, discos and bars.
