Opera Square

  Opera Square, or Plaza de Isabel II, sits prominently in the heart of Madrid, adjacent to the famous Teatro Real (Royal Theatre). Dating back to the 19th century, it was named after Queen Isabel II, who inaugurated the theatre in 1850. This bustling square serves as a vibrant social hub, often hosting various cultural events and performances throughout the year. In the spring months, particularly April, visitors can enjoy the lively atmosphere while appreciating the nearby decorative fountains and historic architecture. Visitors can also catch a glimpse of local street performances or relax at one of the cafés lining the square, making it an ideal spot to soak in the city's lively spirit.
