Message from Kristin and David Neusel

Puerta del Sol is one of Madrid’s most famous and lively squares, serving as a central meeting point for locals and tourists alike. It is home to the Real Casa de Correos, whose clock tower hosts Spain’s New Year’s Eve countdown tradition. The square also features the Kilometer Zero plaque, marking the symbolic center of Spain’s road network, and the beloved Bear and the Strawberry Tree statue, a symbol of Madrid. Surrounded by shops, restaurants, and historic buildings, Puerta del Sol is a hub of activity, offering a true taste of the city’s energy both day and night.
