Tour description

On this tour we will visit the oldest, and also the least known, part of Madrid. From the first remains found in pre-Roman times, through the Andalusian medina and the Christian conquest, to the moment when the town became the capital of Spain, we will take a tour of one of the most beautiful areas of the city. We will walk through its narrow and steep streets, its secluded squares, medieval churches and stately homes that are usually off the typical tourist routes through Madrid. We will be accompanied by such emblematic figures as Isabel la Católica, El Cid Campeador, Muhammad I, Alfonso X el Sabio, Juana la Beltraneja or San Isidro Labrador. There will be no shortage of cultural and gastronomic recommendations.

The places we are going to visit on this tour are the following:

- PLAZA DE ORIENTE AND ROYAL PALACE

- OLDEST CHURCH IN MADRID (San Nicolás de los Servitas)

- TOWN SQUARE. OLD TOWN HALL, LUJANES TOWER, CISNEROS HOUSE.

- HOUSES TO "THE MALICIA"

- GREEN CROSS SQUARE

- ALAMILLO SQUARE

- LA PAJA SQUARE AND SAN ANDRÉS CHURCH

- HOUSE OF SAN ISIDRO

- ALMOND TREE STREET. CHRISTIAN WALL

- CHURCH OF SAN PEDRO THE OLD

- CLOSED DOOR SQUARE
