Fuencarral was an independent town, or villa, until it was annexed by Madrid in 1950, into the Fuencarral-El Pardo district. It’s the ideal place to settle down, far from the hustle and bustle of the big city, as it is the largest green lung in the capital, thanks to the hills of Pardo and Soto de Viñuelas.

Not far from here is the Palace of La Zarzuela, and though it cannot be visited, you can certainly enjoy the park that surrounds it.
