The 21 Best Things to Do in Madrid in 2025

"Puerta del Sol is Madrid's most famous central square, originally the site of an east-facing city gate (hence the 'sun gate') and home to the iconic clock atop the Casa de Correos that Spaniards watch while eating a grape for each of the 12 midnight strokes on New Year's Eve." - Matthew Kepnes
