We'll walk along Paseo del Prado, designed by the Enlightenment of Charles III and now part of the Landscape of Light, which has earned Madrid a UNESCO World Heritage status.

But first, we'll walk along Gran Vía, the grand project of the early 20th century to make Madrid an international capital, and through the Malasaña and Chueca neighborhoods, which represent the most modern and cosmopolitan Madrid.
