Moratalaz, Residential district in eastern Madrid, Spain
The district spreads across 6.34 square kilometers of land bordered by major highways M-30, M-40, M23, and A-3, featuring wide avenues and green spaces.
The transformation of Moratalaz began in the 1960s when it expanded from a small settlement of 40 houses into a substantial residential area through government housing projects.
The neighborhoods of Pavones, Horcajo, Marroquina, Media Legua, Fontarrón, and Vinateros form distinct communities within the district, each with local gathering spaces.
Three metro stations on Line 9 - Vinateros, Artilleros, and Pavones - connect residents to central Madrid, complemented by numerous bus routes throughout the district.
In 2001, this district hosted the creation of the world's largest paella, which served 100,000 people and entered the Guinness World Records.
