Road cycling

If you are interested in the phenomena of real estate speculation, you can take a ride with your bike through the successive extensions that were made in this agricultural town in the 2000s, when it was intended to turn it into a new "dormitory city" for Madrid. The town went from having 500 to 2,000 homes, many of which were never inhabited, or even completed. The town went through a tough time after the real estate crisis with high unemployment rates and the hangover of this recent history still lingers today.

The hermitage of Cristo de la Misericordia and the parish church of Santa María Magdalena stand out. A curiosity is that this town is still buried under the rubble of the real estate boom. In the 2000s, it was intended to turn it into a new "dormitory city" for Madrid and the town went from having 500 to 2,000 homes, many of which were never lived in, or even finished building. The town went through a hard stage after the real estate crisis that still lasts today.
