The
main gay area in Madrid is called Chueca
(Pronounced Choo-aye-ka). Madrid has a lively, raunchy gay scene. There
are several sex bars and most bars have dark rooms, where just about anything
goes. The gay area, Chueca, is in the old quarter at the center of Madrid.
It's a tightly compact area, actually two areas a short distance apart.
Madrileños like all Spaniards tend to party late, going out to eat
at 10pm, hitting the bars at 1am. and on to the discos about 4am after
the bars close. Madrid boasts renowned museums such as Museo del Prado,
Museo Reina Sofia, and Museo Thyssen Bornemisza.
