This large traffic center in the northern part of Madrid features a roundabout as well as the major thoroughfare of Paseo de la Castellana passing beneath. There is a metro station (three lines cross here) and intercity bus station underground as well.
It's hard to miss the plaza with the 90 meter tall Caja Madrid Obelisk and the two angled buildings aka "The Gate of Europe" plus other architectural marvels. The monument to José Calvo Sotelo (1893-1936)
The Plaza is center to culture as well, with the Arte Canal Exhibition Center and the Parque Cuarto Depósito. The Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is not far away.
Busy center, very interesting.
