This may seem like a botanical garden, but it isn't.

This is the main station of Madrid, Puerta de Atocha. Ave high-speed trains, intercity trains, night trains from all over the country and regional trains from the south come and depart from this station, which makes this the biggest train station of Spain. When you walk out of it, you'll walk straight on to the Plaze del Emperador Carlos V, which leads you to even more beautiful sights in Madrid.

Madrid is easy to reach from almost everywhere in Europe by train, thanks to a good high-speed connection through France and Spain. This way more relaxed than going by car! The average amount of layovers is just two layers from most big European train stations.

Trains from Madrid depart to all corners of Spain. From this beautiful station you can get to for example Barcelona, San Sebastian or Malaga without layover, in just a few hours. You could also travel on to Portugal or France from here. The possibilities are endless!
