How to find zero kilometer on Puerta del Sol in Madrid
On the square of the Sun, or the Puerta del Sol, is a "bronze zero" - a plate, from which all the roads leading from the center of Madrid start. You will find it near the entrance to the building of the House of the Post Office.

Be sure to stand on the plate, take selfie and write in Instagram "I am in the heart of Spain" :)
