FIESTAS DE SAN ISIDRO, THE MOST CASTIZA YOU’LL EVER GET IN THE SPANISH CAPITAL!
by Jack Wright
GUIDEPOST’s Chris Collins says: “Las Fiestas de San Isidro, in honor of Madrid’s patron saint, San Isidro Labrador, are being celebrated from 11 to 15 of May. The fiestas are considered the most castiza of Madrid’s fiestas. Castiza means pure, genuine, true representative of the caste (casta). These fiestas are the closest to the hearts of the Madrileños.”
