Secrets of Madrid
We will visit some well known sites and also hidden gems. Tours are only in language at a time. As a driving force and mirror and of the history, culture and art of Spain but also of Europe, along the tour the past will come to life. From the Muslim influence to the austere North European of the Hapsburg and the glamour of the Bourbons, the city is an enthralling mix of cultures. You will discover how a fort of the IX century became the capital of an Empire. In Madrid great stories arise in every corner. This is the city that governed more than half of America and large areas of the world, produced some of the best artists and writers of all time but also struggled with crime, a Napoleon invasion and a Civil War. Along the tour we will visit the city center and the old town through another perspective finding along the way beautiful buildings, hidden corners as meaningful details and misteries and stories that will help us understand the evolution and character of the capital. My goal is that at the end of the tour you will not only see some of the most beautiful and meaningful sites and also less well known great spots, but also understand their deep meaning and how modern Madrid is the result of a series of unexpected events, conquests, successes, catastrophes and contradictions that create a unique urbanism, heritage and culture with great impact in Western culture.
