WOX Travel Contest | Week 20/ Leganés

in WORLD OF XPILARlast year

On my trip through Madrid Spain, my children's apartment is located in this very residential and historic area called Leganés.

But what does its name mean, Leganés, it comes from the Latin leganos, that is, a place with a lot of mud from farmland.

I love to investigate a little about the land I usually walk on, so I went to find out a little more about the place my children chose to live, although it is really the place where they have enough money to buy.

Leganés was originally founded in 1280 as "Legamar" during the reign of Alfonso X el Sabio, years later it adopted the current name.

En mi viaje por Madrid España, el apartamento de mis hijos esta situado en este sector muy residencial e histórico llamado Leganés.

Pero que significa su nombre, Leganés, proviene del latín leganos, es decir, lugar con mucho fango proveniente de tierras de cultivo.

Me encanta investigar un poco sobre las tierras que suelo pisar, así que acudí a saber un poco más sobre el lugar que escogieron mis hijos para vivir, aunque realmente es el lugar donde les alcanzo el dinero para comprar.

Leganés fue fundada en 1280 originalmente como «Legamar» durante el reinado de Alfonso X el Sabio, años después adoptó el nombre actual.

It has all the services, trains, metro, buses, taxis. I was impressed that my daughter with her mobile could locate how long the next bus or train would take, she knew the delays or traffic jams.

Tiene todos los servicios, trenes, metro, autobuses, taxis. Me impresionaba que mi hija con el móvil podía ubicar cuanto iban a tardar el próximo autobús o tren, sabia los retrasos o atascos.

It is full of parks and green areas in all the surroundings of the buildings. There is great respect for pets, the owners take them for a walk and pick up their droppings.

Esta lleno de parques y áreas verdes en todos los alrededores de los edificios. Hay un gran respeto por las mascotas, los dueños los sacan a pasear y recogen sus excrementos.

Meals drove me crazy, breakfasts with serrano ham. The sushi restaurants that I took my daughter to had a variety and you could eat whatever you wanted for low prices.

Las comidas me volvían loca, desayunos con jamón serrano. Los restaurantes de sushi a los que me llevo mi hija tenían una variedad y podías comer lo que quisieras por módicos precios.

My daughter's husband is allergic to shrimp and shellfish so she took advantage by taking me as an excuse to eat them. I really enjoyed these forms of preparation.

***

El esposo de mi hija es alérgico a los camarones y mariscos así que ella aprovechaba llevándome como excusa a comerlos. Los disfrutaba muchísimo estas formas de preparación.

Visit two local churches, a small and very old one, that of San Nicasio and the church of San Salvador, which was being remodeled.

***

Visite dos iglesias de la localidad, una pequeña y muy antigua la de San Nicasio y la iglesia de San Salvador, que estaba en remodelación.

Nothing more refreshing than the Spanish custom of going to the cafe to talk or have a cool beer in the summer.

***

Nada más refrescante que la costumbre de los españoles de ir al café a conversar o tomarse una fresca cerveza en el verano.

Thank you for participating. You describe Spain so attractively that soon all your readers will fall in love with this country :) It seems that you have left many positive impressions.

When you wrote that you tasted all this delicious food at low prices, it was a bit of a surprise to me. When I've been to different countries in Europe, I've never been lucky enough to find a place where you can eat cheaply :)

Thank you very much, yes they were very tasty

Spain is one of my favorite countries and this is not how i know Madrid. Тhere are many similar small towns, but i wouldn't say they are part of Мadrid. Next time you are in Spain visit Madrid and try more of the Spanish cuisine. You can eat sushi anywhere:)))

Leganés is within the district of central Madrid, visit many central places in Madrid and enjoy it a lot. Thank you very much for the support and comment. A hug @kozanozdra
