Deal overview
We want to discover the Barrio de las Letras de Madrid, an area with a lot of history, where some of the biggest celebrities in the Spanish literary world have lived.
This area was formerly known as "el Parnasillo". From artists to prostitutes and criminals lived in this neighborhood, a whole social amalgam, which gave the Literary neighborhood its unique style.
During the Golden Age, great authors such as:
- Cervantes.
- Lope de Vega.
- Quevedo.
- Echegaray.
- Moratín.
- And more.
Throughout the tour, as we walk through the areas where their homes were, we will tell you anecdotes that happened to these people and other exponents of the Golden Age.
Discover one of the neighborhoods with the most history and charm in all of Madrid.
What does the activity include
- Exterior walking tour (not dramatized) by an art and heritage expert.

Despite the online booking process, it was worth it. The guide was 10. A very interesting visit and very well explained. When we return to Madrid we will try to make another of your visits. -

Interesting, entertaining, well documented and very well guided by Edurne.
I only miss reduced rates for children, the unemployed, teachers, as most cultural activities tend to do. -
