The city of Madrid possesses a beauty that can be enjoyed at street level, as well as from its many lookout points. We have compiled a list of the very best so that you can take in the capital’s skyline from another perspective.

– The Moncloa Lighthouse. Next to the Museo de América, the lighthouse stands 110 meters high and is located in the Ciudad Universitaria neighborhood. From this point you can see emblematic buildings such as the Telefónica building, the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral.

– Círculo de Bellas Artes. This 19th-century gem is located right next to the Gran Vía. In fact, we recommend that you visit the entire building as you make your way up to the rooftop terrace. From the rooftop, you will be surprised by the architectural diversity of Madrid’s center and feel like you can easily take in the entire city.

– Temple of Debod. This temple dates back to the 2nd century BC and was gifted to the city by the Egyptian government in 1972. From here you can admire a different profile of the city. We recommend you visit at sunset during the spring or summer, or midday during the winter to fully appreciate how the city takes on various and enchanting tones.

– Hotel Europa Madrid. At our very own hotel, the rooms with views give you the opportunity to look out over the always bustling Puerta del Sol.
