- Santiago Bernabeu Stadium - Named after the renowned footballer and legendary Real Madrid president Santiago Bernabéu (1895–1978), this stadium is one of the world’s most iconic football venues. It has hosted the European Cup/UEFA Champions League final four times: in 1957, 1969, 1980, and 2010. The stadium also hosted the second leg of the 2018 Copa Libertadores Finals, making it the only stadium to host both the UEFA Champions League and Copa Libertadores finals.
- Templo de Debod - Originally constructed in the early 2nd century BC, 15 km (9.3 mi) south of Aswan, Egypt, the temple was gifted to Spain by the Egyptian government in 1968 as a token of appreciation for their role in the International Campaign to Save the Monuments of Nubia. It was dismantled, transported, and reconstructed in the Parque de la Montaña between 1970 and 1972. It is one of the few examples of ancient Egyptian architecture relocated outside Egypt and the only one of its kind in Spain.
- Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas - Designed by architect José Espeliú in the Neo-Mudéjar (Moorish) style with ceramic inlays, this bullring features seating arranged in ten “tendidos.” Ticket prices vary based on proximity to the arena and whether the seats are in the sun or shade, with shaded seats being more expensive. The bullfighting season runs from March to October, with daily events during the San Isidro Fiesta and on Sundays or holidays throughout the season. Bullfights commence at 6 or 7 pm and last for two to three hours.
- Ermita De San Antonio De La Florida - This chapel was constructed near the site of two earlier chapels from the 1730s, located on a farm called La Florida. The current structure was built by Felipe Fontana between 1792 and 1798 under the orders of King Carlos IV, who also commissioned the frescoes by Goya and his assistant Asensio Juliá.
- La Latina - La Latina is a historic neighborhood in the Centro district of downtown Madrid, Spain. It occupies the site of the oldest area in Madrid, the Islamic citadel within the city walls, characterized by narrow streets and large squares. It is almost entirely within the Palacio district in Centro. The neighborhood was named after the old hospital founded in 1499 by Beatriz Galindo “La Latina.”
- Royal Palace of Madrid - Owned by the Spanish state and managed by the Patrimonio Nacional (National Heritage), a public agency of the Ministry of the Presidency, the palace is located on Calle de Bailén (“Bailén Street”) in the western part of downtown Madrid, east of the Manzanares River, and is accessible from the Ópera metro station. King Felipe VI and the royal family reside in the Palace of Zarzuela in El Pardo instead of the Royal Palace.
- Parque del Retiro - The Retiro Park (Spanish: Parque del Buen Retiro, literally “Good Retreat Park”), also known as Buen Retiro Park or simply El Retiro, is one of the largest city parks in Madrid, Spain. It was owned by the Spanish monarchy until 1868, when it became a public park following the Glorious Revolution. The park is located at the edge of the city center, near both the Puerta de Alcalá and the Museo del Prado, and spans 1.4 km2 (350 acres). It features gardens, monuments, galleries, an artificial lake, and event-hosting venues. In 2021, Buen Retiro Park became part of a combined UNESCO World Heritage Site that also includes Paseo del Prado.
- Barrio de Salamanca - At the start of the 19th century, Madrid’s population was about 220,000, growing to 300,000 by the late 1850s. However, the city was still confined within the defensive wall built in 1625 by King Philip IV of Spain, which hindered its expansion. In 1857, the government authorized the then Minister of Public Works and Transportation, Claudio Moyano, to expand the city (Plan Castro). Queen Isabella II approved this in 1860, leading to the demolition of the defensive walls to create the first Madrilian ensanche. Don José de Salamanca y Mayol, 1st Marquess of Salamanca, lent his name to the area due to his involvement in the project. It was fully urbanized by 1927.
- Mercado San Miguel - San Miguel Market is the most popular market in Madrid among tourists, located in the city center, within walking distance from Plaza Mayor. It is not a traditional grocery market but a gourmet tapas market, featuring over 30 vendors offering a wide variety of freshly prepared tapas, hams, olives, baked goods, and other foods. Beer, wine, and champagne are also available.
- Estacion de Atocha - Atocha station is a railway complex comprising the Madrid Atocha Cercanías and Madrid Puerta de Atocha stations of Spain’s national railways, as well as a station of the Madrid underground called Atocha-RENFE. RENFE is the state-owned company that has operated freight and passenger trains since 1941.
- Prado National Museum - The collection currently includes approximately 8,200 drawings, 7,600 paintings, 4,800 prints, and 1,000 sculptures, along with many other works of art and historical documents.
