Madrid, Spain is a wonderful city that is just so alive. I have not yet visited a city as animated as Madrid. And the livelihood of this city is authentic with a nice blend of locals and travelers, since the city has very little to offer in regards to tourism. The streets of the city are full of restaurants and shops tempting you with the smells of paella and Bocadillo de Calamares, a scrumptious fried calamari sandwich and must-eat of Madrid. When evening falls and it cools down, you have to treat yourself to Madrid's specialty, hot chocolate. Its like drinking a a melted version of the best chocolate in the world. Simply amazing.
The San Miguel market is a great place to stumble into. There you can walk the stalls, and for only a few euros you can sample all the flavors of Madrid, shrimp ceviche, pastries, mojitos, shell fish, you name it. Beyond the active city center, the sights of Madrid are few, making them easy to explore and quickly so you can get back to eating. Here they are:
