Madrid

Madrid is the capital and largest city of Spain, located in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula. It serves as the political, economic and cultural heart of the country, housing the Spanish government, royal palace and parliament. The city has a metropolitan population of about 6.7-million people, making it one of the largest urban areas in the European Union. Madrid's economy is highly diversified, with strengths in finance, telecommunications, media, tourism and professional services. The city is home to the headquarters of many major Spanish and multinational corporations, as well as important financial institutions. Madrid hosts significant international conferences and summits, reinforcing its role as a global diplomatic and business hub. The city's strategic location and well-developed infrastructure, including Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport and an extensive high-speed rail network, support its position as a gateway for trade and investment between Europe, Latin America and Africa. Madrid has evolved from a modest medieval settlement into a major European capital, particularly flourishing after becoming the permanent seat of the Spanish court in the sixteenth century.
