Sky Bar & Terraza 3600

It is the best rooftop in Madrid that I always recommend visiting during the first arrival in Madrid because it is the only place that allows you to see all of Madrid, not just one part as it always happens with the others. From time to time I go up with my visitors but you can also do it alone if you want. On weekdays until 17:00 the entrance costs 5 euros and from 17:00 and on weekends - 10 euros.
