Located in piazza Cavour, the famous fountain La Fontana Della Pigna was built in 1543 by Giovanni da Carrara, although in part it dates back to the Roman period. The fountain is of great significance as it served as the sole source of drinking water in the city until the public aqueduct was established in 1912. Additionally, there is an inscription on the fountain referring to Leonardo da Vinci's delight upon seeing this fountain.

With approximately 3,500 stalls spread throughout the winding streets of Madrid's oldest residential neighborhood, El Rastro is considered the largest flea market in Europe.

Cala Mastella is a small, quiet spot with clear water that's great for snorkeling. There’s a laid-back beach bar on the left, and if you follow the rocky path to the right, you’ll come across Bigotes—a no-frills seafood place that’s as local as it gets.

El Retiro, an iconic park in Madrid, was once reserved exclusively for Spanish royalty, but it became accessible to the public in the late 19th century. Covering 350 acres, it is one of the largest parks in the city and is often referred to as "the lungs of Madrid" due to its vast green spaces. It's a popular spot for leisure, sports, and outdoor activities, with wide avenues and flat terrain perfect for running, cycling, and skating. Visitors can also rent rowboats to paddle around the Estanque or enjoy a horse-drawn carriage ride. The park is home to several architectural and historical features, including the Velázquez Palace and the Crystal Palace, as well as remarkable sculptures and fountains, such as the statue of the Fallen Angel, the only sculpture in the world to represent the devil (Lucifer). The park also boasts a Puppet Theater, which offers a unique program every weekend and is one of a kind in Europe.
