Lavapies Street Art & Graffiti Walk, Madrid
Overview
As you stroll through the streets, your guide will highlight several different graffiti and pieces of street art. Other than marveling at the incredible work, you'll also learn that many of these pieces have a poignant message. Let's not forget that Spain was under a dictatorship until 1975. Lavapies' art scene reflects the country's interesting and varied history, especially upon freedom of speech making its long-awaited debut.
