MERCADO DE MOTORES: VINTAGE, FOOD AND MORE
Despite its name Mercado de Motores has nothing at all to do with cars. The name comes from the building, which was the house of Madrid Metro network's power generators until the 80s. The building is gorgeous and the power works are pretty well maintained.
So what is it actually?

Prado's Mona Lisa
Until two years ago, Prado's Mona Lisa was not much of a draw. But then researchers from the famous spanish museum documented that this lady was most likely painted by someone sitting next to Leonardo da Vinci.

Calle de la Cava Baja
Madrid probably has more restaurants/bars per capita than any other city in the world. So you have plenty of places to go out. Calle de la Cava Baja (Cava Baja Street) is one of my favorite ones as it has a lot of tapas bars, one next to the other within 200 meters.
The area is also special as it has hundreds of years of history. Cava Baja and Cava Alta Street used to be part of the fifteen century's Christian Wall.
Directions from our flat in Costanilla Street:
Take Atocha Street and walk two blocks up to Anton Martin Metro Station;
take Magdalena Street and walk five blocks up to Tirso de Molina Square;
then Magdalena Street turns into Colegiata Street: walk three blocks to Cava Baja Street.
Enjoy!!
