Location:
La Latina represents much of the oldest section of Madrid, sometimes referred to as El Madrid de los Austrias which maintains a peculiar urban layout similar to the medieval distribution, with spacious squares and narrow streets. As such, the effect is often that of a traditional pueblo rather than the heart of a major city. La Latina constitutes a large part of the true historic center of Madrid.
The Royal Basilica of San Francisco el Grande, the Church of San Pedro el Viejo, which has a Mudejar tower since XIV, or the Cathedral of La Almudena and the Royal Palace, are some of the landmarks a few steps away from home. On Sundays, both the Rastro flea market, as well as the cafes, restaurants and tapas bars in the area are filled with visitors.
