Wander Chamberí, the relaxed, lived-in district north of Madrid's historic core. Drift between leafy squares and traditional bars, stopping for tapas and a vermouth as the locals do.
Full description
Chamberí is a district north of Madrid's historic centre that has kept a strongly local character. Its streets mix 19th-century buildings, small plazas, traditional bars and neighbourhood shops, and it feels lived-in rather than staged for visitors.
Tapas bars and vermouth spots draw both residents and in-the-know travellers, particularly around the squares and main market streets. The atmosphere is relaxed and a little elegant, suited to a slow walk that stops often for food and drink.
It works well for couples and anyone wanting everyday Madrid without the busiest sights.
