In the center of this square we find the statues of Federico Garcia Lorca and Calder\u00f3n de la Barca welcoming us. This square is a meeting point for friends where you can enjoy lively terraces and a special atmosphere with a traditional touch in which to feel like an authentic \u201cMadrile\u00f1o\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-808 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/garcia-lorca.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/garcia-lorca.png 740w, https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/garcia-lorca-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/garcia-lorca-700x394.png 700w, https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/garcia-lorca-539x303.png 539w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At short walking distance to the west we find the Plaza del \u00c1ngel, named after a beautiful painting of the Holy Guardian Angel that was hung in the convent of San Felipe Neri that occupied this square at the beginning of the 19<sup>th<\/sup> Century. In this square we find Caf\u00e9 Central, one of Madrid\u00b4s classics, where you can have a drink while listening to live jazz.<\/p>\n<p>Very close to this square is worth visiting El Jard\u00edn del \u00c1ngel, one of the most spectacular flower shops in the city. Entering this little paradise is a delight for the senses that will not leave you indifferent.<\/p>\n<p>Returning to the street of our hotel, Atocha Street, we find the Church of San Sebastian. A church with a very rich history since B\u00e9cquer was married there, Tirso de Molina was baptized and it is also where Lope de Vega has been buried.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-810 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/lope-de-vega.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"552\" height=\"654\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/lope-de-vega.png 552w, https:\/\/coolrooms.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/lope-de-vega-253x300.png 253w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 552px) 100vw, 552px\" \/>Continuing with our walk we arrive to one of the most cheerful streets in the neighborhood, Huertas Street. This street is full of animated bars and restaurants where you can have a great time.<\/p>\n<p>Parallel to Huertas Street we find Lope de Vega Street, which is a mandatory stop to visit the Convent of the Trinitarias Descalzas of San Idelfonso where Cervantes is buried.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Very close to here is Cervantes Street where we can end our tour visiting the Lope de Vega House Museum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u00b4s no other place in the world that concentrates the literary and artistic level that Las Letras neighborhood reunites.
