Salamanca: Location and surroundings of this property

The Salamanca district, built by the Marquis of Salamanca at the end of the 19th century and on which he spent practically his entire fortune, is the prototype of the urban expansion, of the garden city, of the aristocratic district with large avenues around which luxury shops and businesses are built, and grandiose palaces, one of which was the home of the Sevillian writer Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. Strolling through the streets of this exclusive neighbourhood, one has the sensation of entering a world destined exclusively for the aristocracy. Brands such as Loewe, Lubaloo, the leader of children's fashion, Prada, Valentino, Miu Miu, Cartier and so many others that delight the most fortunate pockets are to be found on the Golden Mile. The ultimate expression of luxury, as far as restaurants are concerned, is the recently inaugurated Platea Leisure Centre, a unique space with restaurants such as Ramón Freixa's or Sinergias, the result of the union of three of the best Spanish chefs with renewed recipes and the most coveted sweets from Mamá Framboise, among many other delicacies. For anyone who comes from out of town and is a lover of traditional food, the Salamanca neighbourhood is the best place to enjoy the most exquisite tapas in Madrid. The restaurant-brewery Casa Dani, in the Mercado de la Paz, Qué tapas, in the Mercado de Torrijos, or the Cervecería Santa Bárbara, are some of the examples where you can enjoy delicious portions of octopus, Serrano ham, omelette or patatas bravas. In short, a neighbourhood built in the image and likeness of the marvellous Paris where luxury and glamour are the main protagonists.
