Highlights

Vibrant, multicultural Lavapiés is spread out over steep medieval streets filled with lively Indian restaurants and old Spanish taverns. Edgy art shows and events take place at the Tabacalera and La Casa Encendida cultural centers, in contrast with the modern masterpieces, like Picasso’s “Guernica," showcased at the Reina Sofía Museum nearby. Vendors at the busy San Fernando Market sell cheese, books and craft beer.

"Lavapiés is a no-frills neighborhood dating back to the Middle Ages. Its many narrow streets are home to a melting pot of cultures and some vibrant and creative street art. Take an afternoon to walk around the area to appreciate the kaleidoscope of colors that adorn its walls and try out the global cuisine available. For great cocktails and tasty grub, head to Los Chuchis." - MATADOR_NETWORK
