MADRID.Madrid was made capital of Spain by Felipe II in 1561. It is the highest capital in Europe.It is a beautiful city that has been restored after the Civil War of 1936-39. Unlike most Spanish important ciudades, la ciudad de Madrid does not have una catedral gótica importante. La Catedral de la Almudena was built in a later century next to the Palacio Real. La boda de los Principes de Asturias, Felipe de Borbón y Letizia Ortiz, tuvo lugar en esta catedral el 22 de mayo 2004. Madrid, however has numerous churches.La Plaza Mayor was the center of activity for many centuries. Built in a square surrounded by building with arches. It can be accessed through some of the corner arches.It is a pedestrian area with sidewalk cafés and tapa (hors d’oeuvre ready dish) bars.El Palacio Real (The Royal Palace), built by the Bourbons from France, is one of the largest one in Europe, with beautiful gardens.El Retiro is a beautiful park (parque) with a Presidio hemicycle gallery and a Crystal Palace.El Prado is a great European museo showing not only Spanish painters like El Greco, Velázquez and Goya, but also many Italian and Dutch masters.El Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, exhibits mainly modern artists: Picasso, Miró, Dali, etc.El Museo Thyssen Bornemisza, private museum.
Many nightclubs are open most of the night. Flamenco is performed every night.Restaurants abound with seafood and meaty platters. Dinner is normally served at 10 p.m. to the locals. Hungry American tourists try earlier seating whenever possible.La Puerta del Sol is the geographical center of Spain. It is Madrid largest square. On New Year’s eve, los Madrileños gather in front of the Bell Tower of the Ministry to eat 12 grapes (doce uvas), one for each stroke at midnight.

Origins and History of BullfightBullfighting is certainly one of the best known, although at the same time most polemical Spanish popular customs.This Fiesta could not exist without the Toro Bravo, a species of bull of an archaical race that is only conserved in Spain. Formerly this bull's forebears, the primitive urus, were spread out over wide parts of the world. Many civilizations revered to them, the bull-cultus at the Greek island Creta is quite well-known. The Bible reports on sacrifices of bulls in honour to the divine justice. Also in the religious ceremonies of Iberian tribes living in Spain in prehistorical times bulls played an important part.The origins of the Plaza, bullring, probably are not the Roman amphitheaters but the Celt-Iberian temples where those ceremonies were held. In the province of Soria, close to Numancia, one of them is conserved and it is supposed that there bulls were sacrificed to the Gods.While the religious cultus to the bull goes back to Iberians, it were the Greek and Roman influences that converted it into a spectacle.During the middle-ages it was a diversion for the aristocracy to torear on horse's back. That was called suerte de cañas. In 18th century this tradition was more or less abandoned and the poorer population invented the bullfight by foot. Francisco Romero was a key-figure in laying the rules for that new sport.For its fans La Corrida is of course rather an art than a sport, not to speak about the challenge of the man fighting against the beast. It is an archaic tradition that has survived in this country, just as the Toro Bravo has done.
CORRIDA DE TOROS
What a Corrida is aboutIf you are not familiar to Corridas, you will find here listed chronologically everything that happens. So you may decide by yourself if you want to see one when you are visiting Spain.A Corrida starts with the paseillo, with everybody involved in the bullfight entering the ring and presenting himself to the public.The toreros wears el traje de luces, the suit of lights. Two Alguacilillos, on horse's back, direct themselves to the presidency and symbolically ask for the keys to the "puerta de los toriles". Behind that door there are the bulls.With the door being opened and the first bull entering the ring the spectacle starts. It consists of three parts, called tercios, being separated by horn-signals. There are three matadores in each Corrida, by the way, and each will have to torear two bulls.In the first tercio the bullfighter uses the capote, a quite large cape of purple and yellow color. Now enter two picadores, on horse's back and armed with a sort of lance.The second part is la suerte de banderillas. Three banderilleros have to stick a pair of banderillas into the attacking bull's back.In the final "suerte suprema" the bullfighter uses the muleta, a small red rag. He has to show his faena, his masterity to dominate the bull, and to establish an artistical symbiosis between man and beast. The Corrida ends with the matador killing the bull by his sword, “la hora de la verdad”, the moment of truth.
