Summary

Madrid has around 30 museums, is home to the 'Golden Triangle' of art galleries, numerous theatres and thousands of bars and restaurants. With neighbourhoods catering for its wealthy, fashion-conscious and diverse communities and the late opening of shops, bars and restaurants, Madrileños have a varied and at times frenetic lifestyle - aided by the fiercely protected afternoon siesta. No other capital city integrates the Royal Court, Government, cultural institutions, business districts and bars into such an intense footprint. This book selects some key moments from the history of Madrid that have shaped its unique culture, the main sights associated with it and nearby places to eat - encouraging the visitor to soak up the culture with a drink and tapa in hand!
