Perhaps even more spectacular

Last night at the corrida de toros it was the turn of the caballeros or horsemen to fight the bulls. All three of the caballeros showed why in Spain bullfighting is regarded as an art. The skill of these men on horseback had to be seen to be believed.

Out of the six competiions there were four ovations and three ears awarded. Pablo Hermoso de Mendoza was awarded the ears of both the bulls he fought and was carried out through the Puerta Grande to an appreciative crowd.



As you can see, the Plaza de Toros is obviously the place to be for the beautiful and rich of Madrid
