Caja Mágica

Madrid and the cinema get along, from the center to the periphery, where we will start this route, looking for peculiar places, as interesting for the visitor as they were to Pedro Almodóvar.

Do you remember the last scene of his first feature film Pepi, Lucy, Bom? Carmen Maura and Alaska cross the ancient Carretera de Andalucía next to the Hospital 12 de Octubre with a panoramic of the city. Today, this place has been replaced with a big roundabout, but just next to it is the Lineal de Manzanares Park, and inside a mountain with the La Dama del Manzanares, a sculpture by Manolo Valdés from which you can see a vision similar to the one the movie portrayed, and to appreciate the changes that have fallen since the movie was premiered.
