Explore the intricacies of the phenomenon called La Movida Madrile, the Cultural Revolution of the 80s, and what role the neighborhoods of the capital: Chueca and Malasaña, play in it.
Our meeting point will be the Plaza de la Luna, next to the door of the San Martin de Tours Church, from there we will stroll towards the Malasaña neighborhood, still an icon of the Movida Madrileña and the urban tribes of the time. Even today we can find some places that were the musical temples of the time, such as the Sala Maravilla, El Penta, or El Tupperware. We will reach the heart of Malasaña, the Plaza del Dos de Mayo, but first, we will show you some small wonders of Madrid, such as the church of San Antonio de Los Alemanes, the Lara Theater, and the Alfil Theater. We will continue our journey towards the Plaza de Chueca. If Malasaña was the epicenter of the Movida, Chueca is the epicenter of the LGTB movement. This neighborhood has become one of the most visited areas of Madrid with a huge activity between shops, bars, and cultural offers. Its square is always full of neighbors and tourists who like to enjoy its terraces. Chueca is undoubtedly a trendy neighborhood. We will finish our route contemplating the House of the Seven Chimneys that holds an old legend since the 16th century. Do you want us to tell you about it?
