Every year, many countries around the world change their clocks, adjusting them in spring and autumn. In Spain, this change takes place on the last Sunday in March, and this year, the clock change happens today, in the early hours of 31 March. But why do we change the clocks? What is the purpose and history behind it? In this SLEEP’N blog post, we explore these questions and look at the reason behind the clock change in Spain.
Desde Sleep’n hacemos un resumen sobre esta importante cumbre, algunas reflexiones y los avances que se han conseguido hasta la fecha en la COP28.

The high temperatures in Spain and the rest of the world are causing growing concern, yet few know the solution.

Colourful streets in Madrid | Madrid Tourism
Madrid is a city brimming with history, culture and traditions. If you’re planning to visit in August, there are plenty of activities to enjoy across the capital’s various neighbourhoods and districts.
San Isidro Museum
The San Isidro Museum is one of Madrid’s hidden gems, yet a true cultural treasure. It is situated in the La Latina neighbourhood, in Madrid’s historic centre. A visit here will take you on a journey through Madrid’s history, from prehistoric times to the establishment of the Royal Court.
Drought is a recurring problem in Spain, particularly in recent years. A lack of rainfall, high temperatures and overexploitation have caused water levels in reservoirs and aquifers to fall dramatically, raising concerns amongst the public and in the economic sectors that depend on the water supply.
Another neighbourhood bordering SLEEP’N is the Barrio de las Letras, so called because the greatest authors in Spanish literature lived and wrote in its streets.
If you stop to think about it, there are bound to be plenty of electronic devices that you’re replacing more and more frequently. And I’m sure that when you think of your mobile phone or some other devices, it’s not even because they’ve gone wrong.
SLEEP’N is nestled on the edge of one of Madrid’s oldest and most multicultural neighbourhoods, Lavapiés. Situated to the south-east of the city centre, its network of steep, narrow and winding streets retains its medieval charm. It is also notable for its distinctive buildings known as ‘corralas’, where the flats are arranged around a central courtyard.
The tourism sector must step up the introduction of measures to promote sustainable development and do so on a voluntary basis.
