It is one of Madrid’s most emblematic places and the heart and hub of the transport system. At Puerta del Sol you can also see the famous statue of the Bear and the Strawberry Tree, designed by the sculptor Antonio Navarro Santafé, which represents the heraldic arms of Madrid’s badge. Puerta del Sol also houses the so-called “Kilometre Zero”, here since 1950, which is the central point of all Spanish radial roads.
The monastery occupies the old palace where King Carlos I and Queen Isabel of Portugal used to reside, which was also the birthplace of their daughter Juana. Inside, the monastery has stunning tapestries made in Brussels over cardboard wood by Rubens.
This fountain is known around the world for being the celebratory spot for Real Madrid fans after a title victory. The monument, designed by Ventura Rodríguez, was inaugurated in 1782. The figure of the goddess and her chariot were sculpted by the artist Francisco Gutiérrez whereas the lions were sculpted by Roberto Michel.
This monument is so important it even has its own song, written by Ana Belén and Víctor Manuel. It was built by Francisco Sabatini during the reign of King Carlos III and was inaugurated in 1778. Since then, it has been one of the city’s main icons, a symbol that shows the city’s standard to the world.
