Overview
When it comes to the best of the barrios, Malasaña is certainly a contender for the top spot! This creative local neighbourhood is packed with hipster hangouts and decorated with incredible street art, and you’ll always find locals walking their dogs or enjoying some tapas in the evenings. Explore the barrio with a local and discover traditional bookstores and second hand record shops sitting alongside art associations, and trendy coffee shops that become hipster bars after dark next to classic bars that have been around for decades. Stroll the streets with someone who knows them inside out and will reveal the highlights as well as the hidden gems!
