1827 taberna on Cervantes' old street
Literary, cultural, walkable
Las Letras
The Literary Quarter between Sol and the Prado, where historic tabernas meet the great art-museum spine.
The Literary Quarter, once home to Cervantes and Lope de Vega, threads from Sol toward the Prado triangle along streets whose cobbles are inlaid with lines of verse. Old tabernas pour vermut beside the city's great art-museum spine, and almost everything worth seeing is within an easy walk. It is the cultural anchor of central Madrid, where a museum afternoon slides naturally into a long evening of wine and tapas.
