For free Wi-Fi in Madrid, go to the Cibeles square

You can spend as long as you like there looking for the information you need on the Internet. The Cibeles Palace itself is a huge neo-Churrigueresco complex. Now there is a telecommunications centre, so you need to pass a security check at the entrance to the building.
Ride the Teleferico cable car at Casa de Campo in Madrid
Casa de Campo is a famous park located a little west of the Madrid centre. It is also home to the Teleférico cable car, an amusement park, and a zoo. In the evening, a beautiful view of the western part of the city opens from here.
