Eating out
Walkabout
Madrid has incredible restaurants. For game, Horcher is a classic.
Not being much of a city person, it is the perfect introduction - a city that feels like a village. It has beautiful architecture, great restaurants and bars and plenty of space. My wife’s family lives there, so for me, it is like going home.
It is nice to walk through the old part of town between El Retiro and the botanical gardens.
Enchanted garden One of Madrid’s best -kept secrets are the beautiful gardens at El Capricho, an old private estate inside the city limits of Madrid that is now a public park.
Heart of the city The Plaza Cibeles right in the heart of town has incredible views up the Castellana.
