Villar del Olmo is a well-kept and welcoming village, located at the head of the Vega stream, an agricultural valley between the slopes of Mediterranean scrubland where the landscapes of the Las Vegas and Alcarria regions of Madrid meet. It is a transit area between towns, valleys, moors and countryside. The Plaza Mayor is a beautiful Castilian-style space, which centres the dynamics of the village. It has whitewashed facades, stone arcades, a historic fountain, the Town Hall and the parish church, and next to them the Casa del Maestro and the schools. In the lowest part of the village, between the urban complex and the neighbourhoods of modern houses of Las Suertes and La Trinidad, there is the Fuente de San Isidro and a poplar declared a Singular Tree by the Community of Madrid. It is about twenty metres high and is almost one hundred years old.
