the centre of the city, just a few minutes walk from thePuerta del
Sol.

La Gran Va, Madrid
The Gran Va, together with the Paseo de la Castellano, is
Madrid's most famous street, mentioned in zarzuelas (Spanish
operettas) and books and shown many times in films.
It starts at the Plaza de Alcal square and leads across the city
to the expansive Plaza de Espaa. Along this Great Way, as its name
translates, there are hundreds of businesses - shops, stores,
hotels, banks, restaurants, bars, cinemas and theatres - making
this perhaps one of the most important commercial districts in the
