Emblematic, traditional, new-fangled. There is always a choice of places to climb, to gain height above the streets and buildings, to see and to enjoy. Madrid is no different. Or maybe it is.<\/p>\n<p>The city of Madrid has each of these elements. Reliefs, geographical inequalities that are seen as heights in its street map and key buildings that literally put Madrid at your feet. Systematically climbing a selection of Madrid's viewpoints can turn an itinerary with heights into one of the most original ways of getting to know the city.<\/p>\n<p>We dare to give you the keys to find these places, yes, keys. <strong>A dozen viewpoints to see Madrid from above<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Temple of Debod<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is an Egyptian construction given to Spain by the African country more than half a century ago that offers magical sunsets over Madrid. At one end of the esplanade of ancient buildings there is a viewpoint that enhances the experience.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Moncloa Viewpoint<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u00a0It is located in the Moncloa Interchange. It is especially suitable for romantics because every day when the weather is good, the place offers a spectacular sunset. From the viewpoint you can see the Sierra Norte de Madrid, the Arco de Triunfo de Moncloa and its lighthouse.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Moncloa Lighthouse<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is obvious that the communications tower of Madrid City Hall should be one of the key places to see the city from above. The tower rises 110 metres above the street level, although its semi-circular observation deck is 92 metres high. It is the 11th tallest building in the city. From the top you can see the whole northwest of Madrid. It is open on Tuesdays and Sundays.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_219\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-219\" style=\"width: 668px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-219\" src=\"https:\/\/madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa.jpg\" alt=\"Faro de Moncloa viewpoint in Madrid\" width=\"668\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa.jpg 668w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa-281x420.jpg 281w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/mirador-moncloa-640x958.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 668px) 100vw, 668px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-219\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mirador del Faro (Moncloa Lighthouse). Madrid, Spain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>Gourmet Experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This is a panoramic viewpoint located on the ninth floor of the El Corte Ingl\u00e9s de Callao building. You don't have to pay for a drink to enjoy the views.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Huerta de la Partida Viewpoint<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is in the Casa de Campo. In the orchard of the same name. The most curious thing about this spot is that it is not exactly an elevated enclave. Its location allows a clear view of the Madrid skyline.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Segovia Viaduct<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The views from this urban bridge offer very suggestive images of the Royal Palace, the Almudena Cathedral, the area of Calle Bail\u00e9n and the more traditional areas of Madrid de los Austrias.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Fine Arts Circle<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is located on Calle de Alcal\u00e1. Access is not free, but for a small fee you can enjoy a rooftop terrace with beautiful views of the centre of Madrid.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Cerro del T\u00edo P\u00edo Park<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This green space is popularly known as the Parque de las Siete Tetas (Park of the Seven Tits) because of the characteristic profile of its elevations. Some of these heights are the ones that offer the best views over Madrid. To get to the Cerro del T\u00edo P\u00edo Park, get off at the Portazgo metro station. Address: Calle Ram\u00f3n P\u00e9rez de Ayala.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Madrid Cable Car<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It is currently closed for maintenance until its reopening in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>It is something like a mobile viewpoint that allows you to see the whole of Madrid. It is a cable car with cabins that connects the Paseo del Pintor Rosales with the Casa de Campo area. The journey takes just over ten minutes, the aerial route is almost 2.5 kilometres long and the maximum height of the route is 40 metres. This original transport system has 80 cabins, each with a capacity for five people.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-221 size-full\" title=\"Madrid Cable Car\" src=\"https:\/\/madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid.jpg\" alt=\"Madrid Cable Car\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/teleferico-madrid-681x454.jpg 681w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Palacio de Cibeles CentroCentro<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This is a public cultural space in the centre of Madrid, located in the Palacio de Cibeles.
