Read about my family's tapas tour in Madrid"


The author of Don Quixote, Miguel de Cervantes, serenely looks over his literary creations from above.
Locate in a forest of skyscrapers, the Plaza de Espana is an expansive green area with a pool and a massive monument celebrating Spanish culture. In this extensively used park can be found children playing, couples strolling, and often a Spaniard taking in a novel. The shade-providing trees on the south side of the plaza are particularly welcoming on a hot Meridian day.

The plaza was planned by Teodoro Anasagasti and Mateo Inurria. The stone monument was build in 1928.
