Leisure Options at Babylon Idiomas Madrid

Start on the Puerta del Sol in the centre of town and step with both feet on the “kilómetro cero” tile. As you may have guessed, it is from this tile that all distances throughout Spain are measured. Continue to the Plaza Mayor around the corner (and smile because our Spanish language school is just opposite the square) and marvel at its grand architecture and street artists. Next stop could be the Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza or Reina Sofia museum to enjoy one of the finest selections of Spanish art in the world.

Why not enjoy a lazy afternoon in the Retiro park with friends or head to one of the many excellent restaurants in Madrid to enjoy its famous food? At night the options multiply and whether you want to take it easy or dance the night away, there is something in Madrid for everyone.

Don’t forget that football is king in Madrid and everyone (yes, everyone) has a strong opinion about what their football team (most likely to be Real Madrid) needs to do next. Try to attend a game in the stadium –or share the noise in a crowded bar- to soak up what it truly means to be a “socio” or fan.
