Location description:

This neighborhood bounded by Paseo de la Castellana, Alcalá, Príncipe de Vergara and Don Ramón de la Cruz, is one of the few in Madrid with a well-defined urban structure in blocks -manzanas- in a structure of perpendicular streets. The Salamanca neighborhood has traditionally been considered an upper class neighborhood and is the most sought after by locals or long term visitors, without being a typical tourist neighborhood. It is in this area, around the streets of Serrano and Ortega y Gasset, where the numerous international luxury fashion, jewelry and watchmaking firms are concentrated, as well as the flagship stores of the well-known Spanish brands of the Inditex empire and the Spanish department store par excellence, El Corte Inglés. It is undoubtedly the golden mile of shopping in Madrid. In parallel streets such as Claudio Coello, Ayala, Hermosilla etc.. This offer is completed with charming fashion and accessories stores of designers and national brands. Among these well-known streets we find the Mercado de la Paz. It is a famous municipal food market, built in 1879, born of the need to supply this new urban center that was the expansion of Madrid and the current Barrio de Salamanca. Ortega y Gasset Street and Serrano Street are especially beautiful for the uniqueness and beauty of its buildings.
