Madrid is a amazing city, I love Spain kiss from Canada!

Amen to that! Spain is so beautiful! Viva Espana!! God Bless America

This is a beautiful presentation. We will be visiting Madrid soon. Can anyone tell me if it is ture that the evening meal is eaten at 10pm and there are parties all night long? I am old and in bed by 9 and am a little concerned about being able to get a restful night's sleep.

Yes, meals are generally taken later in the evening than we (North Americans) are used to. And yes, locals tend to stay up later, especially in the summer time. In fact, it was quite a shock for me to see entire families - grandparents and babies included - up at 11 PM in the streets. Eating ice cream and otherwise hanging out.

As for getting a restful sleep, though, I don't think you have to worry. Worry more about the heat (as in, get an air conditioned room!). Any room with AC should be quiet enough for sleep. And meals you can get anytime.

that is from my point of view and i also read the work of Julián Juderías titled the black legend its very nice to read stating the cruelty and the curse to the people ruled by spain.

By the way, me and my husband actually roamed thru Spain for about a month in March. Mardrid and Toledo we visited but we also explored the non-touristy towns of Andalucia, around Granada, Malaga, Costa Blanca. We found the people to be nice and so family-oriented and placed the working hard as second priority to family and having fun! By the way, statistics show they're the most long-lived people in Europe. At same time, cocaine is more used there, too. oh well....can't have everthing, can you?

hi yhamjs its nice to know that you been touring spain lately.. anyway i havent been there yet, i only visited london and ireland last month, but who cares anyway. yes its true that the countries below mentioned brougth injustice to locals in the area but i just cant help to think that most countries under spanish power turned to be poor, plague with corruptions etc.
