To date, vacation in Spain - one of the most attractive options. A country of the sun with an interesting history and a unique culture. Since ancient times, people from all over the world have come here to enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea.
The main attractions of Spain are its climate and cuisine.
Surprisingly, the legacy of the mighty empire remains majestic. Literally every town has at least some tourist attractions. But the main business cards of this land of the sun are as follows:
Gaudi's legacy - Antonio Gaudi, a truly great architect, left behind the most precious gift imaginable. Many of Barcelona's most important buildings are his handiwork.
But most tours of Spain begin with a visit to the Sagrada Familia. This is the architectural embodiment of the Bible. Its façade depicts the stages of the life of Jesus Christ. The architect also gave Barcelona the unique Parc Güell with its picturesque houses, pavilions and sculptures. Both are on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
Alcázar of the Christian Kings - This palace is perfectly preserved to this day and every tour operator in Spain recommends visiting it even if you don't have time. It is an example of ancient Mudejar architecture surrounded by gardens. The cathedral in the center of the ancient city of Toledo is decorated with original paintings by Rubens, Raphael and Goya. It is home to Tavera, the oldest hospital in the country. There is also a museum. And the best photos from Spain are of course taken from the Gothic San MartÃn Bridge. Also worth a visit are the Archaeological Museum with its Roman heritage, the majestic ancient monasteries and monuments of Islamic culture. Many last minute Spain tours include excursions to these places.
Spain has a Mediterranean climate. The Mediterranean coastal areas have a maritime climate with sultry summers and mild winters. The interior of the peninsula has a continental climate, while the southeast has an arid climate. Like the climatic conditions, the nature in each region of the country is special and unique.
Spanish cuisine has different traditions in different regions. In coastal areas, boiled octopus and sous vide leaves are favorites. In the interior of the peninsula, roast pork is a favorite. But tourists must try tapas (traditional snacks of sausages and vegetables). Paella and serrano hamon are also worth trying.
