Barrio de las Letras

Home to great writers of the Golden Age of Spanish literature such as Cervantes and Quevado, the Barrio de las Letras also boasts the most important museums in Madrid. C/ Huertas is the main artery of the neighbourhood, and there you can find tapas bars and places to have a great time whenever the weekend brings people together, especially thirty-somethings who are out for a beer with friends. Plaza de Santa Ana, with its roomy terraces, is one of the area's big attractions for tourists.
