Overview

This opening fold-out contains a general map of Madrid to help you visualize the 6 large districts discussed in this guide, and 4 pages of valuable information, handy tips and useful addresses.

Discover Madrid through 6 districts and 6 maps

Palacio Real/ San Antonio de la Florida

Puerta del Sol/ Plaza Mayor/ Rastro

Prado/ Thyssen/ Reina Sofía/ Retiro

Gran Vía/ Chueca/ Plaza Dos de Mayo

Plaza Colón/ Plaza de Las Ventas

Azca/ Nuevos Ministerios/ Puerta de Europa

For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants -- listed in ascending order of price -- cafés, bars, tearooms, music venues and stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that Madrid has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system (A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map.

Transportation and hotels in Madrid

The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 4 pages of practical information that include a selection of hotels.

A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide.
