Area Centro is the heart of Madrid, with narrow streets full of people, shops, bars and academies of all type and condition. It is a commercial and pass-through area, where the famous Kilómetro Cero is located, meeting spot both for tourists and locals, where you can find buildings and emblematic areas of the capital city, such as the Palacio Real or the Plaza Mayor. Lately, houses’ facades, which are mostly from last century, have been renovated, and some lovers of the hustle and bustle of the center have reformed the flats. The headquarters of several companies are in this neighbourhood, as well as all kinds of shops, commercial centers and street vendors. Furthermore, in Puerta del Sol, there are several shops that can’t be found anywhere else in Madrid, and there are plentiful pubs, coffee shops and old taverns, being the latter the tourists’ favorite.
Metro: Sol (lines 1, 2 & 3, also Cercanias train). Walking distance to anywhere.
