The City

For many students studying Spanish, Madrid is the city of choice due to its wonderful lifestyle, vibrant nightlife, friendly environment, perfect location and variety of cultural activities and sights. That's why Madrid saw nearly 10 million tourists coming to enjoy all the city has to offer in the last year. The town's great arteries, such as the Paseo del Prado and Paseo las Acacias, were designed during the 18th century under the reign of Carlos III. You can not leave Madrid without experiencing night clubs such as the Teatro Kapital, which is one of Europe's most famous clubs, with seven different floors each showcasing their own style. Also there is the Joy-Eslava, a converted theatre, open every day of the year! You can not leave without having a drink in some of the historic bars, such as the Vía Láctea or the Penta in the district of Malasaña, where you can sample the popular "movida madrileña" of the 1980's. You can rely on Madrid for a huge array of restaurants, boutiques and shopping centers for those who love to shop. Everyone wants to visit the popular market on Sundays and Bank Holidays in La Latina el rastro where you'll find gifts, clothes, jewellery and much more for next to nothing. Seeing the sights, dining on the street, and enjoying the cosmopolitan atmosphere all come together to make the ideal Sunday. And Madrid of course is home to many shops that belong to the most prestigious and glamorous brands. Have a stroll along Gran Vía, Calle Preciados or Fuencarral and you'll see how not buying something is difficult!
