Summer is just round the corner.

There is something special about a summer night in Madrid. The air is still steamy even after the sun has gone down, and the night comes alive with activity and movement. At hours when during other seasons we would all be bundled up in bed, in the summer it’s just too tempting get out into the city’s electric vibe. And somehow, getting to the top of a building, and looking out over all the activity below makes the night magical. Madrid a city of extremes when it comes to its climate – cold in winter and swelteringly hot in summer. Temperatures in the warmer months can be well into the 30s, while heatwaves reaching highs of over 40°C (104°F) are not uncommon.
