Barrio de las Letras
I walk this quarter with my head down, reading the street. They've cast lines of Golden Age verse into the paving stones, and most people walk straight over them.
The Golden Age writers' quarter — Cervantes, Lope de Vega, Quevedo and Góngora all lived and feuded within these few blocks. Their words are literally set into the pavements.
