Royal Madrid: Exploring the Legacy of the Austrias
Walk with me through the most essential spots of Madrid, where you will discover the true origins of this capital city - from its past of fire and water to the same landscape that powerful kings, from the miraculous saints and attractive bandits roamed, to the town of palace intrigues and plebeian cliques, the squares of unjust executions and the corners of furtive romances, the place of war and reconstruction. . . the Madrid of yesterday and the Madrid of today!
