The Buildings and Shops to See on Gran Vía in Madrid

From Calle de Alcalá to Plaza de España, there are several places of interest for tourists, locals, and Spaniards from all over the country.

This famous street is divided into 3 sections. In the first section, you'll find the Metrópolis building, which stands out for its figure of Winged Victory. Further on, we find the entrance to Grassy watchmakers, a store full of history, as it has very old clocks, from the 16th to 19th centuries. Inside this building, there is also a museum, which you can visit for free by appointment.

In the second section of Gran Vía, the first building that stands out is the historic Telefónica building, one of the first skyscrapers in Europe and the first in Spain. We also recommend seeing the famous Palacio de la Música and the official Real Madrid store, one of the places of greatest interest if you are passionate about football.

Finally, the third section of Gran Vía is between the San Luis network and Plaza de Callao. Here you will find numerous fashion stores and the entrance to El Corte Inglés, whose terrace has a fabulous viewpoint that is highly recommended to go up to contemplate the urban landscape. If you like cinemas, you can also go to the Carrión building, which is also known as the Capitol building.

Gran Vía ends at Plaza de España, where the España building and the Torre de Madrid are located, two of the city's most important architectural style buildings. New shops are constantly opening, and new plays are premiering.
