Name the creature.
I’m a majestic beast, swift and bold,
In fields of green, my tale unfolds.
A noble creature, with hooves that prance,
A symbol of freedom in every glance.
I can move swiftly, by day or night,
Chasing the wind, my spirit takes flight.
Though I may be pure, like snow, of course,
Can you guess what I am with my grace and force?

About the destination
About Madrid
The city rewards the curious. Retiro Park stretches like a green lung at the heart of the city, La Latina's cobbled lanes fill with vermouth drinkers from late afternoon, and Malasaña bristles with tiled facades and independent bars that locals have claimed for decades. Madrid wears its layers openly: Habsburg grandeur next to Arab-era street plans, golden-age painting steps from a 3,000-year-old Egyptian temple.
Questo's quests here cover real range. Ghost hunters trace eerie folklore through the old city after dark. History fans escape a very real Inquisition-era trap in the historic centre. Literature lovers follow Don Quixote clues to hidden corners few tourists reach. Others unravel a crime mystery, discover the secrets of El Retiro Park, or dig into the character of La Latina quarter, all at their own pace with no group, no guide, and no fixed start time.
Two locally confirmed tips worth knowing: Sunday mornings, El Rastro flea market fills La Latina's streets, and the neighbourhood's tapas bars hit their stride straight after on Calle Cava Baja. And the sobremesa tradition is real: Madrileños sit at the lunch table long after eating, talking over coffee, so build that into your day rather than fight it.
