About
快速信息: 走在那条主干道上能听到戏剧片段与路人掌声，空气里常混着咖啡和爆米花的香气。整条街约1.3公里长，数十家剧院与老式电影宫让这里成为演艺与夜生活最集中的街区之一。
亮点: 晚上九点以后，街角那块著名的Schweppes霓虹招牌会在雨后的积水里把人行道染成橘金色，站在Edificio Carrión前可以同时闻到爆米花的奶油香和路边烤栗子的焦糖味。老化妆师们有个奇怪的习惯，常在凌晨两点把用不着的戏服晾到屋顶留下小纸条或饰物，年轻演员会把它当作临时的公告栏来交换道具和八卦，悄悄告诉你，很多人捡到的那件戏服后来还上过舞台。
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, expect long stretches and some cobbled pavement.
- For the best photos of the avenue, shoot from Plaza de Callao or climb the rooftop of Círculo de Bellas Artes for a skyline view.
- Avoid weekend nights and public holidays when the street and bars are busiest; aim for weekday late afternoon or a matinee show.
- Skip the souvenir-only chain eateries on the main strip and step one block into Malasaña or Chueca for better tapas and prices.
