  • Alcalá de Henares is a small town nearby Madrid (30 min by train). I stayed there to study Spanish at "Escuela Internacional". The city is very old and the architecture simply captivated me. Many foreigners go to the Universidad de Alcalá to study spanish too, so it's a very "young" city in this way. The nightlife is not as good as in Madrid. There's a nice shopping mall in Alcalá called "El Campo", but it's a bit far away, so get the bus and make sure you get it in the right direction!!! There're many trains and buses to Madrid from Alcalá.
