My sister and I once visited Madrid and we were shocked to see an empty street and closed business firms. We wondered what happened to the small metro because we thought that people should be very busy that time of the year since there were numerous tourists who visited the location. Our tourist guide elaborated to us why the metro was quiet that time of the day and she said that it was siesta time.
We understood that during siestas, businesses closed down because very little people go to firms. A common form of rest in the country is taking a short slumber to regain the people's energy from working. The climate is also a key factor for this Spain habit. Since it is too hot in this country, it is best to cloak from the heat and take a break from a very tough morning and to prepare for another tiring late afternoon and night. My sister and I thought if the same thing happens in offices in the country and our tourist guide just cracked. She said that in the departments, of course, people cannot take a slumber, otherwise they will get fired.
I understood a lot from visiting Spain and now I know that the perfect time to roam around the country is not during siesta when the whole location is asleep.
