Description:

Explore a darker, more mysterious side of Madrid. The city has survived wars, plagues, and pestilence, and nowadays every block has something to tell. From famous sights to hidden alleys and tucked-away corners, this city center walk exposes legends and stories generations old.

Start your journey into the shrouded heart of Madrid by admiring some of the charmingly illuminated monuments. At the Church of San José outside of its wrought iron entryways, hear the tale of the white rose—a passionate night that ended with a mysterious funeral. Stroll to the ominously unassuming House of Seven Chimneys and decide for yourself if the building is cursed after your guide divulges its history of riots, suicides, and entombed skeletons.

Wander along Alcalá Street and pass buildings such as the Círculo de Bellas Artes, the Instituto Cervantes, and the Casino of Madrid. Continue to the Puerta del Sol and see the famous clock whose bells mark the beginning of a new year. Your night tour ends in Plaza Mayor, where you can take a break with a traditional hot chocolate and churros in a local chocolatería.
