Conde Duque & Malasaña

Central-north · Barrios to walk and eat · $$

If I had one day to show off the city's daily rhythm, I'd spend it here without leaving the neighborhood.

More walkable and less saturated than the tourist centre. Serious bars (Casa Macareno, Casa Camacho), specialty coffee, independent shops. Plaza de las Comendadoras is one of the best for a terrace pause.
