Madrid is famous for its numerous sidewalk cafes and café-bars. Madrilenos (people of Madrid) often walk along the avenues in the evenings during summer. That is when the city’s fountains are illuminated. This activity has declined because many boulevards have become more crowded with automobiles.
There are several large parks in the city. The most famous is Retiro Park. It is much like New York City’s Central Park. It has tree-lined avenues, an art exhibition pavilion, an artificially created lake, monuments, fountains and a rose garden. A second large park is the Casa de Compo. It has a cable railway, monorail, and a modern zoo. Another park is the Parque del Oeste. It has a broad area of trees, rose garden, and avenues between the city and the Manzanares River. People in Madrid enjoy the outdoor activities during the summer.
