Top 10 Things to do in Gran Via, Community of Madrid
So many of Madrid’s buildings look like castles, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into a fairytale. Even City Hall is astounding, with its white pinnacles and neo-Gothic features. A self-guided architecture tour can begin by the great bear statue in the central Puerta del Sol. Wander by the fanciful Royal Palace before absorbing the natural beauty of Retiro Park, then visit one of the city’s many museums. You could happily cap off each day by nibbling on forkfuls of paella while sipping Spanish rioja.

A very well done museum about the history of telecommunication from its exception right through to the present day, an amazing array of different phones, cables and any associated phone equipment even a switchboard from the 50's that you can use. there are toilets and a small cafe there is a lift up to the Museum so it is wheelchair friendly and all on one level. There was a separate exhibition on the next level on Photographer William Klein which is also well worth a visit.

This beautiful oratory is tucked away in central Madrid a few odd foot steps from Gran Via. It is a treasure to find right there in the middle of the city, just off the main pedestrian way that connects Gran Via to Puerta de Sol. It's interior is cozy, welcoming and beautiful.

The experience was unforgettable, the Lion King show spectacular. The Theater is well situated in the Gran Via, the sound is very good also the seats, and the services they offer before and after the show. I enjoyed it very much.

Located in the iconic building of Antonio Palacios that was headquarters of the Merchant and Industry Bank. The room is currently located under a huge paved vault and it maintains free exhibitions of contemporary art. It is committed with both young artists and fledged authors, and it is interested on the diversity of languages that characterized the current creation.
