🇪🇸 First Stop: Madrid, Simply Magical! ✨
Our first destination—Madrid—might not have endless attractions, but under these golden sunny skies, the city shines with pure charm! ❤️ Two days here were enough to explore the center multiple times (or even one day if you're in a rush!). 🌳 Top Spot: Retiro Park (My #1!) Find a sun-drenched afternoon here—absolute bliss! 🌞 Glittering water, rowboats 🛶, ducks waddling about. Locals singing, dancing, spreading joy—you might join too! Perfect for unwinding for hours in that golden light. 💛 📍 Other Stops (Quick Visits): Plaza Mayor / Puerta del Sol / Alcalá Gate / San Miguel Market (Nice for photos, but not much else.) Royal Palace & Prado Museum (Stunning for art lovers, though a bit repetitive after a while.) 🍖 Foodie Highlights: Vinitus (🔥 Steak + foie gras toast = UNREAL!) (Go early—no queues!) JAMÓN LOVERS, REJOICE! � Any random tapas bar with Iberian ham will make you happy—we feasted like kings! 🏨 Hotel Gem: The First One Hotel, Gran Vía Perfect location (walk to everything!). Surprisingly spacious (rare for downtown!). Delicious breakfast, super-friendly staff—great value! 💯 👀 Safety Thoughts: Madrid feels safe & welcoming! Locals dress well (plenty of designer fits 👗), and backpacks are common. (We looked like hobos compared to them… but no issues! Just stay aware.) #WinterTravelWishlist #Spain #Madrid #RetiroPark 🌞🇪🇸
