PLAZA DE LEALTAD
Read moreJust next to the famous Prado Museum, the obelisk of May 2, 1808, inaugurated in 1840, contains in an urn the ashes of some heroes of the uprising against Napoleon's troops. Former Spanish King Juan Carlos also made it the monument to the unknown soldier with his traditional flame.Its small garden is charming. Not to be missed between two museum visits for a well-deserved break.
The trading exchange, behind the obelisk, dates from 1893; its construction is inspired by the one seen in Vienna.

VIADUC
Read moreThe first viaduct dates from the end of the 19th century, in 1874. The new one, made of three 35-metre vaults and polished reinforced concrete, was designed in 1932. It was finally built in 1949 above Calle Segovia, between the Royal Palace and the Basilica of San Francisco El Grande. Pedro Almodóvar often used it as a decoration (stiletto heels, Matador). The view of Madrid, especially the west of the city, the Casa de Campo, the Royal Palace and Cathedral of La Almudena, is incredible. Enough to warm up your camera!
