The 10 Best Concerts & Shows in Salamanca (District), Community of Madrid
So many of Madrid’s buildings look like castles, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into a fairytale. Even City Hall is astounding, with its white pinnacles and neo-Gothic features. A self-guided architecture tour can begin by the great bear statue in the central Puerta del Sol. Wander by the fanciful Royal Palace before absorbing the natural beauty of Retiro Park, then visit one of the city’s many museums. You could happily cap off each day by nibbling on forkfuls of paella while sipping Spanish rioja.

There are a couple of design exhibitions at the moment as part of the Madrid design festival. One focuses on a contemporary designer, Patricia Urquiola who has produced some lovely work although with overcomplicated explanations and another exhibition looks at 100 objects and how their design has evolved to make them more user friendly, more beautiful, smaller...There is a further room full of, 'astral objects' There is some explanation in English which is helpful. Very interesting overall and free.

William Morris was one of the prime leaders of the Arts and Crafts Movement in England and the Juan March Museum had many of his designs in fabrics, wallpapers, and furniture. This is one of the best exhibitions that I have seen in this museum.
5. Tablao Flamenco La Quimera
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 733 reviews
Cafetín La Quimera, located in the Salamanca neighborhood of Madrid, is a small and intimate restaurant with flamenco shows every day. The venue is dedicated to offering the public an authentic flamenco experience at a reasonable price. The flamenco performances are held from Monday through Sunday, with one show per night during the weekdays and two shows per night during the weekends. Ticket packages include the option of the show with drink or dinner, featuring different menus of traditional Spanish dishes that can be sampled tapas style. The atmosphere is one of a local bar and restaurant: a friendly, informal and relaxed setting which is perfect for an evening of flamenco. Seating is also never far from the stage with tables and chairs on two sides for a good view of the show. No microphones or additional technical equipment are used for voice and guitar: the emphasis is always on the artist’s natural tools and talents to transmit the experiences of flamenco without effects.

Amazing dancing and music in a beautiful and intimate location. It was one of the best parts of our trip to Spain and it was so nice to experience traditional Spanish culture in an authentic atmosphere.

Why not, go to a play when you’re in Madrid. Great production, but it was a bit long, with the break almost 3 hours and I was falling asleep.
