Madrid is very proud of its metro. Or should I say that the Metro de Madrid is very proud of its metro.
I’m always struck by the different slogans the Comunidad de Madrid comes up with. Their latest one, on their website, is
Rápidomodernoecológicocómodoseguro
…vivo
Fastmodernecologicalcomfortablesafe
…alive
I do like the tube system in Madrid very much, so here is a short video for those of you who haven’t been on it before.
Enjoy the ride!

and cheap!!! sometimes with “live concerts”
Yes, cheap indeed!
For those of you visiting Madrid, there are a few passes available, but do consider buying a “Metrobus”. This is a pass with 10 trips on it that you can use either on the bus or the metro. At the moment, I think it’s about 9.70 EURO, making each trip REALLY cheap. It’s what I use when I’m in Madrid, really convenient.
