Self-driving in Spain|A Walking Guide to Madrid

In Madrid, whether it's hot or cold, it comes quickly and leaves quickly. This is how Hemingway described Madrid. Perhaps Madrid is not as poetic and imaginative as Barcelona, but as Hemingway described, it is a sunny city that rejects melancholy. When you first arrive in Madrid, you can feel a blend of history and modernity in the city. In the early morning, a golden sunlight falls on the Gran Via. Start from Retiro Park in the early morning, pass through the Alfonso XII Monument and the Crystal Palace in the park, then head west, passing through Puerta del Sol Square, and you will pass the famous Chocolate churros on the way, then go straight to the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor, when you are almost exhausted, have a drink at Plaza de Santa Ana, and then return to Retiro Park. In the evening, shuttle through the San Miguel Market, spending time on delicious food and wine. Stroll slowly and eat slowly, two hours will pass quickly. At night, sit in the colorful square with a glass of wine, shed the heat of the day, and enjoy the cool breeze. A day in Madrid is fulfilling and comfortable. Finally, attach a map and route. Of course, it would be better to find a local companion
