About Los Angeles
Where to stay in Los Angeles
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Los Ángeles is a working ward of Villaverde rather than a visitor's base, and a stay here means being outside the Madrid that most itineraries cover. Hotels barely register in Los Ángeles. What the ward gives back is ordinary Madrid: the Church of San Andrés Apóstol on a normal morning, and Gran Vía Villaverde going about its business.
Anyone with business in Villaverde will find the ward practical; anyone here for the centre of Madrid should sleep closer in.
About Los Angeles
What are the main landmarks in Los Angeles?
Two churches carry the ward. The Church of San Andrés Apóstol and the Church of San Mateo are the buildings that give Los Ángeles a fixed point, and both are recorded under Madrid rather than under Villaverde alone. Street furniture makes up the rest.
Obeliscos octogonales Av Andalucía, Monumento 4 Gran Vía Villaverde and Monumento 6 Gran Vía Villaverde Letras are markers set along two of the ward's main roads. Nothing older is listed.
What is the history of Los Angeles?
Villaverde's written record picks up Los Ángeles late. Los Ángeles enters it as a ward of Villaverde, one of the administrative divisions of Madrid, with no founding year attached and nothing on its landmark list that carries a date. Madrid is the capital of Spain, and Los Ángeles is one ward inside its Villaverde district.
Barrio is the local word for it.
Where is Los Angeles?
Villaverde holds it. Los Ángeles covers under two square kilometres, with the Obeliscos octogonales Av Andalucía marking its streets.
