Barajas
Your gateway to Madrid – Madrid's gateway to the world
Overview
Are you a frequent traveller? Do you need a home near Madrid?
If so, consider Barajas. It's home to Adolfo Suárez Barajas International Airport. So you can fly to global destinations without spending a fortune on taxi fares.
Barajas is 12–14 kilometres outside the city centre. But it has a metro and a train station. You can get to the centre of Madrid in 20 minutes.
Barajas is residential and full of parks. For a quiet hidey-hole in Madrid and a jet-setter lifestyle out of it, you know where to come.
What can I do here?
Catch a flight from Barajas International Airport. Not something to do every day, mind, unless you're cabin crew.
El Parque Del Capricho is nearby. It's a pretty park and green. Green. It's a colour you'll miss when the August sun burns the earth. Cool shaded green is here. All year.
IFEMA is a convention centre near the airport. Madrid Fashion Week is held here. So is the annual ice-cream conference. You could say it's a mix of the pale and the perfect.
Medieval fact
El Castillo de Los Zapata is the only medieval castle within Madrid city limits. You can find it in the Alameda de Osuna district of Barajas. Historic.
