Message from Anya Petrova

Puerta del Sol is the beating heart of Madrid — a symbol of the city’s life and energy. 🌟
Here you’ll find two iconic landmarks: the famous statue of El Oso y el Madroño (The Bear and the Strawberry Tree), featured across the city's symbols, and the Kilómetro Cero, the point from which all Spanish roads are measured. 🚏
In winter, Sol hosts Spain’s tallest Christmas tree and the city's biggest New Year celebrations. 🎄🎉
It’s a lively and bustling square, often filled with concerts, events, and crowds — so keep an eye on your belongings!

My tip:
Grab a coffee with a view at Zapcoffee ☕ — the perfect spot to take a little break and soak in the atmosphere.
