I really loved Madrid coming from the states it’s a really good blend of cultures. Literally can find good Asian or Latin food anywhere. Spanish food and history is really interesting here and there’s always something to do.

My first ever K-pop concert! 🫶 SKZ in Madrid made me feel so connected — both to other fans (Stays) and to the members themselves 🤗 Now I know: concerts are the perfect addition to any trip and a beautiful motivation to make dreams come true 🌿
Posted: July 26, 2025I stayed for 4 nights. The city center was always very safe and I was able to visit places both in daytime and night time. There were homeless people around but they didn’t harass. I joined a walking tour and almost got pickpocketed but the guide noticed and warned me. All good besides that
Posted: June 7, 2025Madrid is a city where I felt very safe all the time, even as a solo female traveler. there is also a lot of activity to do, lot of museums to visit and it’s possible to visit them for free on certain day which can be useful if you are on a budget. Lots of parcs and rest area in the city as well:)

As someone who lives in Madrid, I can say the city is generally very safe. Violent crime is rare, and most of us walk around daily without worrying. The main issue is pickpockets, especially in busy spots like Puerta del Sol, Gran Vía, Retiro Park, or crowded metro trains. It’s smart to keep your belongings close and be aware of your surroundings.
