La Latina is one of the oldest and most charismatic neighbourhoods in Madrid. Its streets preserve the layout they had centuries ago, their names (Puerta de Moros, Plaza de la Cebada, Calle de la Morería, La Latina) take us back to a time when this area was the true centre of the city. The neighbourhood is named after Doña Beatriz Galindo, a humanist and tutor to the family of the Catholic Monarchs, who called her "la latina" because she was the Latin teacher of the Queen and her daughters. She was responsible for the foundation of the Hospital de la Latina on the site where the Teatro La Latina stands today. One of the highlights of the neighbourhood is El Rastro de Madrid, the oldest and best-known flea market in the capital (it was first documented in 1740). It is located on a very long street called Ribera de Curtidores and is full of street stalls on both sides, where you can buy all kinds of products.
