Things to Do in Malasaña, Madrid

One of Madrid's densest nightlife quarters, spreading around Plaza del Dos de Mayo north of Gran Vía. The square recalls the 1808 uprising, while record shops, vintage stores, and bars carry the legacy of the post-Franco Movida; convents and traditional taverns still survive between the murals and late-night crowds.
