The
area
where this apartment is located is definitely amazing when it
comes
to tourism as well as being well connected to the rest of the
city.
Embajadores is a multicultural neighborhood, where you can find
people
from many places, which gives it an ethnical richness, reflected
in
the amount of restaurants that offer a variety of gastronomic
options,
as well as small shops where you can find products from all
over the
world. This -castizo- neighborhood (called this way because it
housed
the popular social classes ) still keeps some of its old
constructions,
but lately, new buildings are becoming part of the
scenery. For all
art lovers, this location couldn’t be any better,
since the Reina
Sofia Museum is only a few streets away. Its great
collections of
contemporary art will amaze you and you will definitely
fall in love
by its great architectural design. On Sundays a very
interesting
market takes place in Ribera de Curtidores street ( between
La Latina
and Embajadores): El Rastro. This traditional flea market is
an
institution for the Madrid citizens and a very attractive activity
for
tourists. To see the rest of the city you can choose to take the
bus
,the metro and the Cercanias train, the three of them are your
disposal
from the Embajadores and Acacias station. So, if you want to
stay in
a place from where you can fully enjoy the essence of this
wonderful
city, the location of the Acacias apartment is a great choice.
Acacias
metro
station (line 5 and 3) is 50 metres away from the apartment. Some
of
the most important tourist and cultural spots in the city are within
walking
distance to the apartment such as the Palacio Real and the
Prado,
Thyssen and Reina Sofía museums.
