¡Hola a todos!
Who knew that Madrid, besides being the Spanish capital, was the cultural capital of Europe in 1992-a fun fact many of you probably weren’t aware of, although this comes as no surprise when looking at the magnificent cultural attractions this city has to offer. On top of that Madrid has a reputation for being a student’s city, as well as being a city for footballers thanks to Atlético and Real Madrid.

However I do hope that these FashionTouri-Highlights will make your stay more memorable and ensure that you can see as much as possible. Written by Tabea-Marie Widmann
