Introduction
Madrid stands on the Castilian
high plateau or tableland
(
meseta
) at a height of 646
metres (2,119 ft.) above sea level,
where Barajas Airport is one of
the most popular focal points for
the forty-nine million tourists
who flock to Spain every year.
Radiating out from the city’s
inner hub is a complex rail and
road network that speeds
travellers to any corner of Spain,
to neighbouring France and
Portugal, or to the sea frontier
with North Africa. Surrounded by
mountains and impressive
scenery, the Madrid Region
enjoys a temperate continental
climate, with spectacular springs,
hot summers, long, mild, brilliant
autumns, and winters that, while
not overly cold, bring snow to
the nearby summits, thereby
providing additional leisure
and fun.
THE TERRITORY
Majestic and stylishly dignified,
the archway known as the
Puerta
de Alcalá
(puerta
; gate),
designed by the architect
Sabatini in Spain’s Age of
Enlightenment, is at once a
symbol of a city eager to
welcome the world, and a
veritable gateway to Spain for
millions of visitors from all
around the globe.
Five and half million people live
in the Madrid Region
(
Comunidad de Madrid
), with
approximately three million
concentrated in the metropolitan
area. This region is situated at
the geographical centre of
mainland Spain, and is bordered
by Castile & León, whose
domains extend northwards as
far as the Cantabrian Range and
westwards to nearby Portugal.
Stretching away to the south and
east are the plains of Castile-La
Mancha, which convey the
traveller down to the beaches of
the Mediterranean.
HISTORY AND ARTISTIC
HERITAGE
Behind the modern region that
meets the eye today, there lies a
significant body of history, which
is undoubtedly one of its main
attractions.
Puerta de Alcalá
Although the capital city of
Madrid harks back to settlements
on the banks of the River
Manzanares in the remote past,
its foundation as such did not
take place until the arrival in the
9
th
century, of Mohammed I, the
fifth Omayyad Emir of Cordoba.
Testimony to that era of
conquest and splendour of
Moorish Spain
is still visible in
the remains of the Moorish walls,
now converted into a venue that
in summer stages
zarzuela
(Spanish operetta), drama and
outdoor shows. It was King
Alfonso VI, two hundred years
later, who won the citadel for
the Kingdom of Castile, a citadel
that, with its long-vanished
alcázar
(fortress-palace) was
thenceforth to become one of
the bastions in the line held
by the Christian kingdoms
against the Moors. In
1110, the fortress
courageously withstood the
siege of the Almoravids, and
in 1202 Alfonso VIII granted
Madrid its
Charter
, thereby
formally constituting the
commonwealth of the city
and its domains (
Comunidad
de Villa y Tierra, villa
being
equivalent to the French
ville
).
Madrid witnessed the court
intrigues to secure the throne of
Castile
, initially for Juana la
Beltraneja, and only subsequently
for
Isabella the Catholic.
The
so-called
Comuneros
(16
th
-century
Segovian insurgency movement)
passed through Madrid at the
time of King Charles I of Spain,
better known as the Holy Roman
Emperor Charles V, and it was
here too that the Court sat in
1561, under Philip II, with the
town becoming the capital of an
empire on which the sun never
set, the centre of the then
“civilised” world. Two principal
royal houses, the
Hapsburgs
and
the
Bourbons
(present to this day
in the person of the present King
Juan Carlos I), experienced the
vagaries of fortune in the capital
city of Madrid, an “old rambling
town” transformed over the
years into a royal and illustrious
city. Today, with the Hapsburgs as
your guide, you can visit the
Madrid of the Plaza Mayor
(main square) or Retiro Park. In
Bourbon company, on the other
hand, you can take in the Royal
Palace, Prado Museum, Cibeles
fountain or Puerta de Alcalá, on
which the enlightened Charles III
-nicknamed “Madrid’s best
mayor”- left his indelible mark.
In addition, there are just so
many streets and avenues
steeped in history, and so many
lovely churches, under the
protective umbrella of
La Almudena Cathedral
and the
Church of St. Isidore, the legacy
of a city that for centuries was
the very image of spirituality for
the Christian kingdoms.
Madrid, city of kings, is also the
starting point for the highways
and byways that lead to the
Royal residences, namely, palaces,
mansions or lodges that the
monarchs had built in exquisite
settings, and whose grandeur has
come down to us intact. The
Monastery of El Escorial
, a short
drive from Madrid on the Royal
Way to Avila, is indisputably the
jewel in the crown. Ensconced in
the mountains, it is an impressive
sight, the power base from which
Philip II held sway over his
boundless domains. Altogether
more stylish, flanking the
romantic delights of the Tagus
riverside,
Aranjuez Palace
stands
as the prime example of the
splendour and refinement of a
Spanish Court that set the
standard in Europe in matters of
lineage. Standing in part of what
