1- The Royal Palace of Madrid (Spanish: Palacio Real de Madrid) is the official residence of the Spanish royal family in the city of Madrid, although now used only for state ceremonies. The palace has 135,000 m2 (1,450,000 sq. ft) of floor space and contains 3,418 rooms. It is the largest royal palace in Europe. The palace is now open to the public, except during state functions. An admission fee of €13 is charged; however, at some times it is free. The palace is owned by the Spanish state. The palace is on the site of a bygone Muslim-era fortress constructed by Emir Muhammad I of Córdoba in the 9th century. A new palace was then built from scratch on the same site on behalf of the Bourbon dynasty. Construction spanned the years 1738 to 1755.

2- The Puerta del Sol (English: "Gate of the Sun") is a public square in Madrid, one of the best known and busiest places in the city. This is the centre (Km 0) of the radial network of Spanish roads. The square also contains the famous clock whose bells mark the traditional eating of the Twelve Grapes and the beginning of a new year. The Puerta del Sol originated as one of the gates in the city wall that surrounded Madrid in the 15th century. Between the 17th and 19th centuries, the area was an important meeting place: as the goal for the couriers coming from abroad and other parts of Spain to the Post Office.

3- The Plaza Mayor (English: Town square) is a major public space in the heart of Madrid. It was once the centre of Old Madrid. It was first built (1580–1619) during the reign of Philip III. Today, the Plaza Mayor is rectangular in shape. The Plaza measures 129 m x 94 m. 237 balconies are present on the three-story residential buildings that face inward towards the Plaza. To enter or exit The Plaza Mayor, there are ten entrances to choose from, however, there are nine gates. In the centre of the square stands the statue of Philip III on a horse, which was placed in 1848.
