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. Places further afield are easily
accessible by metro. 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
is the capital and largest city in Spain, as well as in the province and
the autonomous community of the same name. It is located on the river Manzanares
in the center of the country. As the former capital of the old Spanish
Empire, Madrid has been bestowed with a degree of cultural predominance.
Renowned museums such as Museo del Prado, the Museo Reina Sofia, and the
Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza are major tourist attractions in the city.
