Going to Madrid in a couple of weeks for the weekend. Have got tickets for Real Madrid v Alaves for the Sunday night.
Any recommendations of things to do? Will have my Dad with me who is in his 70s so nothing that wild.
We'll be there early Saturday morning and not leaving until Monday evening so plenty of time to do stuff other than watch football!!
The Escorial might be 1 option. You can also get handily to places like Toledo or Segovia on a day trip by train.
Beside Plaza Major is a covered relaxed food market, the name of which escapes me despite its fame. Could get a beer/coffee there and chill.
Mercado San Miguel - highly recommended.
