About
All Spanish roads are measured from a plaque in front of the Casa de Correos. On New Year's Eve, Spaniards eat twelve grapes on the twelve chimes of its clock. Look for the statue of the bear and the strawberry tree, symbol of Madrid.
Best time to go: New Year's Eve, if you like crowds; otherwise, a quick stop.
