One of the best day trips from Madrid or Barcelona One of the best day trips from Madrid or Barcelona is Zaragoza 👌🏼

It’s around a 3 hour drive from both cities, and you can easily explore the old town in even half a day if you’re short on time 🙌🏼

Make sure you grab brunch at @extrem_zgz before exploring the city’s key historic attractions such as its 11th century palace, its 2 cathedrals located in Plaza de Nuestra Senora de Pilar, and its iconic stone bridge 🚶🏼‍♀️
