This is a must when you visit Madrid. Whether it's to soak up the sun, to take in the colours of the fall, to feel the melancholy of winter or the joy of spring. At the northern end of the park you can't miss the huge boating lake, where you can enjoy the monument to King Alfonso XII from the water. The Crystal Palace nearby is also worth visiting.

It was part of the first Madrilenian subway line, opened in 1919. It had to be closed at the beginning of the 60's, because the Metro Company decide to add more wagons to their trains and it was impossible to enlarge this station. Has been closed until 2008, that has been re-opened as a museum.

The Atocha building is beautiful seen from the outside, but the real wonder hides inside. A minor rainforest, with full-size palmtrees stretching their leafs towards the roof covering the giant hall. A spectacular contrast to all the iron and the marketstalls underneath. You will also find a small pond crowded with hundreds of turtles.

This park is a green oasis in Madrid's concrete jungle. Get off at Principe Pío metro station and walk along the river until you get to Legazpi metro station. On your way you'll enjoy nice views of the Royal Palace. For the football fans: as you walk along the river you'll pass by the Calderón stadium, home to the Atlético de Madrid football club.

There are plenty of reasons why this should be your favourite cinema. Firstly, it's only a stone's throw away from Sol square. Secondly, 3D films don't cost more than 2D films. Last but not least, on Wednesday films are half price!

Lions, bears, giraffes, rhinos and many more. They're all here in this huge animal park hosting more than 500 different species. From tiny insects to big sharks. Shows with dolphins and majestic birds are very popular, and the aquarium-part of the park is spectacular. A great day out for the family.

Although it smells a little bit greasy, this visit is quite special, because you can learn more about the main public mean of transport, and it's very related with Madrilenian history. This center was useful also to provide energy to a part of the city during the Spanish Civil War. It was closed in the 70's and re-opened as a museum in 2008.
