You meet your guide outside Hotel Moderno and the city's rhythm immediately changes: fountains chatter, street performers call out, and narrow alleys open onto plazas where histories collide. The walk threads from Puerta del Sol—where the Bear and the Strawberry Tree stand watch—toward the leafy expanse of Retiro Park and finishes beneath the stone frame of Puerta de Alcalá. Children listen, laugh, and ask the questions that bring Madrid’s past to life.
