Puerta del Sol

Puerta del Sol is a bustling hub that captures the energy and vibrancy of city life. It's a place where people converge, whether to meet friends, take in the local culture, or shop in the nearby stores. At the center stands the iconic clock tower, which has been the focal point of New Year's celebrations for many years. The statue of King Charles III and the well-known ‘Bear and the Strawberry Tree’ monument add a sense of historical depth and charm to the square. Street performers and musicians are a common sight, bringing an ever-changing mix of entertainment and cultural experiences to passersby. 💡Curiosities One of the key landmarks here is the plaque marking Kilometer Zero, the point from which all radial roads in the country are measured. Every New Year's Eve, locals and tourists gather to eat twelve grapes at the stroke of midnight, a tradition believed to bring good luck for the coming year.
