Madrid may not have Barcelona’s reputation for excellence in design, but its broad sweep of architectural history provides a glorious backdrop to city life, from medieval mansions and royal palaces to the unimagined angles of Spanish contemporary architecture, from the sober brickwork and slate spires of Madrid baroque to the extravagant confections of the belle époque. En fin, Madrid done right never disappoints.
This itinerary outlines the best way to spend a few days exploring my city with a range of restaurants and activities to choose from. Everything you need in one place so you can focus on enjoying your trip without the stress.

Off the Beaten-Path Madrid, Where Locals Actually Go. If you are like me, you hate to pack your days traveling from one tourist hotspot to the next 'must-see' landmark. Take a break from the usual guides and lists of what you 'should' see in Madrid and allow yourself to experience Madrid for all its charm through its food, shops, drinks, and unique culture. I find it fascinating that Madrid does not have an Eiffel Tower, or a Coliseum, yet millions are drawn (& some stay like me) to its indescribable aura that you need to see for yourself.

Thrifting is a great way to buy new pieces of clothing while also saving a few extra dollars...and most importantly it's a sustainable way to shop! I spent a lot of my free time in Madrid wondering around the streets finding new thrift stores to browse through and I ended up purchasing some amazing pieces I will keep for a long time!
In this guide you will find my top recommendations for thrift stores in Madrid organized by area so you can plan your shopping day around what area you want to visit, or if you find yourself in the shopping mood while your out and about you can check this guide to see what is nearby!
Keep in mind stores are usually closed on Sundays and store hours are typically 10:00/11:00 until 20:00/21:00, but beware that the Spanish take their siesta seriously and stores may be closed around 14:30-16:30!
