Come see Plaza Mayor at night, it's a completely different vibe from the day crowd and in a good way. On the weekends you can expect a variety of vendors selling everything from lottery tickets, to stamps and rare coins but at night there are...More
A very vibrant square with lots of cafes (VERY overpriced) and lots of things to grab your attention - singers, jugglers etc. Good fun and free!
Interesting and you need to wander around and see it but best avoided.....unless you are joining a walking tour or popping into the Tourist office. The interesting places are in the side/baxk streets. Beware of the pick pockets and scammers!!

To many this place is Madrid heart. It is a perfect place to enjoy a Sangria with family an friends. Plenty of great places to pick from. They have always a lit of cultural events a fun for the kids. A no-miss place.

Finding the plaza after wandering around the narrow twisting streets was half the fun. When we got there, we sat on the base of a statue and spent a good half hour just watching the world go round.
