If you visit Madrid, you must acknowledge the football culture. Madrid is home to numerous football clubs, including the world famous Real Madrid. Their stadium, Santiago Bernabeu, is one of the largest in Europe.
The stadium was built in less than three years, being inaugurated in 1947. Since then, the venue has been expanded and renovated, now being able to be host for more than 81,000 guests.
