Teleférico en Rosales

This guide to the Teleférico en Rosales in Madrid starts on the hill of Cerro Garabitas, seized by Nationalist troops in November 1936 and used to shell central Madrid for the rest of the civil war. It follows the hill's transformation decades later into the landing point for a cheerful cable car, and the neighbors along the Paseo del Pintor Rosales who delayed its 1969 opening for an unusual reason. A good listen while riding, or watching the cabins glide overhead from the park below.
