The first set foot on the land of Spain, can still feel the strong prevailing in the Medieval Knight wind. Belongs to the Knight Sword and armor still appears in a corner of the country or a window, and the blood flowing in Quixote about the knight spirit and ideals in the modern world is still precious.
If the rider will be with the victory of the war, the pursuit of power, in honor of the maintenance, faith abide by relevant, so Quixote also can not be included in the category of true knights, but if you simply from the soul and moral dimension, then he will be a valuable collection of Knight class, a sweet and clear clean.

Spain is known as Europe's most exotic country, starting from the 711 A.D. Arabs invaded Europe, Europe is located in the southernmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula, Spain as a cup of well-prepared cocktail in general has been changed, both structured and fully blending, the greater will be more wonderful blend of culture.
In Spain, walking a few days, no matter from which point of view, from which point of view, Spain and "Quixote" can't get away. Someone once said, if you choose a book to represent a country, so most can manifest the Spanish character is of course the "Quixote". In Spain, people's life has been free from the original concept of the coerced, everything is free in the ideal and the reality of the. Because "the names of every mention of Quixote" are real, the travel line specially designed a "Quixote road", and our journey along this road start slowly.
In history as an important strategic position and known as "the gate of Europe" said Madrid has turned from a strategic city evolved into the art of civilization. Madrid is a walking tour of the city, starting from either direction and angle, are from art to art.
Our journey will start from here. Stands the famous Quixote monument in the palace on the opposite side of the Spain square, built with granite monument pillar front, is a huge by white marble shaped into a statue of Cervantes. Cervantes is wearing a sleeve, in sixteenth Century the cloak, he lost in the Leband war left arm was cleverly hidden in the cloak of the inside, right hand holding his masterpiece, "Quixote". The monument also plastic readers around the huge stone ball, a symbol of "Quixote" in the world.
In front of the monument, copper spear like Quixote and riding on a donkey's servant Sancho like neck and neck line, quills, they was born in Cervantes, was born in Spain in the essence of knight. See Quixote riding a tall and strong, waving a statue without edge, can not help reminiscent of Cervantes's all kinds of interesting stuff, and one of the most unforgettable, is Quixote Dulcinea is almost crazy about plot description, this also let Cervantes become the most romantic writers in the world.
The statue has given people the feeling, is to become the author and protagonist, facial expressions vary them, but they are filled with a kind of comes from folk warm natural vitality, desire and longing for freedom. On the square of the Madrid tower, a city of art panorama can be fully integrated into the eye, when the sun went down, dominates the city's numerous living beings go figure and gradually rekindled the lamps and candles of a myriad families, will be in Madrid with temperament.
The next day, on the road to Madrid literature blocks, we again with the "Quixote" accidentaly across. Printing factory old at 87 Atocha street was printed "Quixote" place, now it belongs to the Cervantes Institute of management, is responsible for the printing of the first edition in 1605 of Quixote's novels in the printing factory, workshop engineer. After we passed to save Cervantes died proof San Sebastian church. The guide told us, in fact, about where Cervantes buried in saying a lot, and with certainty, but whether true or false, unable to judge, without judgment, because the spirit of Cervantes and he's classic characters infused the blood of bone, in the years faint flow never depart.
Literary block was many literary masters, to live, the streets are not wide, lined with tall or short of building. Sunset light are blocked in the building. The street seemed dignified, but not lonely. All over the world literary youth, like walking in here, looking for hot on the stone on the road of the famous Spanish writer of the famous aphorism. Ultimately, Cervantes Abas word. Reflecting the light, the text has been painted golden yellow, warm winter cold.
Leave Madrid, we also visited the Prado Museum and queen Sophia Center for contemporary art, but it is touched not only Velazquez's work "little princess" or Picasso's "Guernica", and those in the art of that time. With the lighting lamps, warmth of the restaurant to taste the paella, chewing the waxy fragrant rice, teeth with red wine mellow and saffron fragrance. Just like the dishes on the table, Madrid from surface to inside of a dripping art connotation.
