Question

For those of you who have been or lived in Madrid, Spain. What do you like about it?

Answer 1

I like the lifestyle, relaxed and happy, at least more than NYC.  I love the food, the architecture, the night life, the people is pretty friendly, and everything.  There is a downside, but, the good things overpower the bad ones

Answer 2

I like the fact that I only know about one kakface in the whole area of Madrid.  I wouldn't like the city if there were any more of those crazy punks!

Answer 3

I love the late night life... over here in the US very few places have late night dining (well unless you count coffee shops like Dennys or bars!).  In Madrid we would get up at 9 or 10, have breakfast, eat a wonderful pre fix lunch.. consisting of our appetizer, entree, dessert and wine (YUM!), and then around 9 or 10 we'll have dinner.  How cool is that?  Our evening doesn't start until 9 at the earliest!

The city has wonderful buildings, museums and close to other sites!
