Shopping in Madrid allows you to get lost in the height of European boutique fashion, unique arts and crafts, souvenirs and the biggest haute couture names. Even better, non-EU residents, including those from the UK, can reclaim VAT for tax-free shopping. You can explore vast indoor shopping malls and outdoor shopping centres or head for one of the street markets for which Madrid is famed.

To find the best shopping in Madrid, head for the Chueca-Malasaña Fuencarral area, the Calle Mayor and Calle del Arenal districts. Open-air shopping is the attraction in Puerta del Sol and Barrio de Salamanca offers luxury boutiques.
