Chueca
Gay neighborhood with some of the best restaurants and stores
Lavapiés
The most diverse cultural neighborhood in Madrid.
Conde Duque. My favorite neighborhood a town like feeling with great terraces and beautiful streets. A very familiar neighborhood with amazing restaurants, cafeterias and the beautiful cultural center Conde Duque.
(Actually it is not formally a neighborhood but some streets in between two other neighborhoods, for this reason I have shared the main street since Conde Duque as a place does not appear in google maps.)
