Madrid was my homeplace for about 3 years...

by Belsaita - last update: Sep 9, 2005

Find nice places... just wandering around
Madrid, as all of you probably know, is the capital of Spain, and it's located in the very geographical centre of the country. This location is great, according locals, as you are "close to everywhere". However, I have to say I felt mostly "in the middle of nowhere" as I missed the sea so much... But I should reckon it's a great place to visit (better as a tourist than for day to day living) and there are fabulous places nearby you can visit on a daytrip: my favourite is Segovia, closely followed by Toledo.

I keep visiting Madrid in a regular basis. I will try to add comments and tips about my favourite places, please be patient. In the meantime, do not hesitate to send me a message if you have any question!

Pros:"In the middle of Spain (close to everywhere)"
Cons:"In the middle of Spain (far away to everywhere)"
In A Nutshell:"Nice to visit, hard to live in."
