Madrid & Tenerife in $490s-$580s RT

Today we offer you this pair of (very different) Spanish locales and their accompanying legends.

Madrid is the largest city in Spain by a mile, so everything here takes on an urban flavor... including the ghosts! Take the metro line 1 between Bilbao and Iglesia, and you might glimpse the abandoned Chamberí station. It's been disused since 1966, but trains were never re-routed (and some think the passengers never stopped coming).

Stories in Tenerife are a little older, and further above ground — as far up as you can get, in fact. Mount Teide is the highest peak in Spain and it's sacred to the Guanche people. According to legend, the volcano serves as a prison for an evil god. 

You'll have to decide for yourself whether to head up or down in search of local lore, but one thing's for sure: all stories pay well with a table of tapas.
