Madrid - The city with a pulse!

Madrid's symbol in Puerta del Sol

Madrid's symbol
The statue of a she-bear nuzzling a madrono (strawberry tree: so named because the fruit look like little strawberries) is not only the city's symbol but also a favourite meeting place for the locals, as is the clock tower on the southern side. This square will be buzzing on New Year's Eve!
