Something interesting about Madrid
Madrid is one of the most popular cities in Spain and also its capital. The city attracts tourists from all the corners of the world with its special combination of old and new, traditional and cosmopolitan that is present at every street corner and in every bar, pub or restaurant.
If you would have visited Madrid in the 1960s, you would have seen the fingerprints of General Franco all over the city: officials of his government driving long hooded Citroens, people who had to call the watchman of their neighborhood in order to unlock their buildings when the night fell, street repairmen who had to wear blue suits and teenage girls who were in love with Rafael’s music.
Nowadays, they are all dead: only the Gran Via, the Museums and the Theatres are testimony of the times which are long gone. The city of Madrid is a very exciting one, with lively inhabitants who know how to work, but also know how to have fun. The nightlife is one of the most active ones in entire Europe as a result of the impressive number of young tourists who feel attracted by the city.
The city’s bullring hosts bullfights full of adrenaline as well as modern rock concerts, so you can understand where the unique combination of old and new comes from. Give Madrid a chance and offer it a little bit of your trust and I assure you that you will never regret it!
