Christopher Columbus Square
The Columbus Square and its fountain commemorate the explorer Christopher Columbus. The gardens in the plaza are known as the "Jardines del Descubrimiento".
There is a monument to Columbus built in 1885. This is a statue of Columbus standing at the pinnacle of a tall column. At the base of the Columbus monument is a large fountain with a broad cascade of water. There are steps leading under the cascade and beneath the plaza, where the roar of the fountain is amplified. Under the plaza along with Madrid City Cultural Centre lies a stop for a special shuttle that takes passengers to Barajas Airport ( read more )
