Madrid is the capital and largest city of Spain, sitting at the geographical heart of the Iberian Peninsula at over 650 meters above sea level — making it the highest capital in the European Union.

It's a city of contrasts: grand boulevards and royal palaces alongside vibrant neighborhoods like Malasaña and Lavapiés. World-class art museums — the Prado, Reina Sofía, and Thyssen-Bornemisza — form the so-called "Golden Triangle of Art." The city is also synonymous with football, home to Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid.

Madrid has a lively food culture centered on tapas, bocadillos, and the famous cocido madrileño stew, with nightlife that famously runs until dawn. Its climate is continental — hot, dry summers and cold winters — with over 300 sunny days a year.

Politically and economically, it's the country's nerve center, housing the national government, the royal family (at Palacio de la Zarzuela), and the headquarters of most major Spanish corporations.
