Overview
Canillejas is a middle class area and is close to the Barajas Airport. It has grown extensively in recent decades. It was the last suburb before reaching the Campos (countryside), but has since been flanked by new growth. Heading towards the center of the city, its main street becomes the Calle De Alcalá, which has many of Madrid's landmarks, including the bullring, Retiro Park and eventually ending in Puerta del Sol.
