Do some people-watching at Plaza de Pontejos. If its well-trodden paths could talk, this historic square would have plenty of stories to tell.

Plaza de Pontejos is a great place to begin discovering Madrid Centro. This public square comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Pencil in time for other sights like Plaza Mayor, Prado Museum, and Santiago Bernabéu Stadium to fully experience what's on offer in the area.
