Walking loops in Malasaña, Madrid
Plaza del Dos de Mayo commemorates an 1808 uprising, and Malasana has maintained that rebellious instinct ever since — through the movida of the eighties, the record shops and tattoo parlors of the nineties, the craft cocktail bars of now. The streets are tight and sloped, graffiti-tagged shutters rolling up each afternoon to reveal vintage shops and bookstores. The neighborhood runs late. Dinner at ten, drinks at midnight, and the plaza fills with people sitting on the ground because all the benches were taken hours ago.
