Holidays in Spain

Choosing your holiday destination is not an easy job, but you should consider a trip to Spain at least once in your lifetime. Spain is a country that fits the tastes of any tourist, because it has a wide range of activities available and an unbelievably long list of places to visit.

First of all, it is heaven for those who prefer a seaside holiday in a sunny and warm place, on a fine beach covered with delicate sand.

It is also one of the few places in the world where you can go skiing on one of the high mountain peaks in the morning, and bathe in the warm water of the Mediterranean Sea in the afternoon (the sea lies at the foot of the mountains.) There is also a long list of palaces and castles, churches and cathedrals, monasteries and museums, all displaying different and very special architectural styles.

Some famous places in Spain:

Who hasn’t heard about Madrid, the capital of Spain?  But do you also know that it is the perfect place for shopping, famous for its elegant shops offering all the big brand names? And do you know that Madrid is a place known for the best in music, for the abundance of bars and pubs and for the impressive number of museums? Valencia comes next, the city renowned for its beaches, as well as for its orchards, which give it a very picturesque aspect.

The city of Bilbao is famous for the Guggenheim Museum which hosts an impressive number of art collections, most of them dating back to the latter half of the 20th century. Cordoba is really noisy, but you should definitely visit its mosques which are world-famous wonders of architecture. Malaga has a very unique air, with its white buildings and the streets decorated with pink flower bushes.

The contrast between white and pink is very special and rare in the world, so take advantage of it! Benidorm, on the other hand is a total contrast to Cordoba, a very peaceful city, very quiet, a place where you can just relax and enjoy the warm sun.

Ibiza is a destination for young tourists who love nightlife, while Almeria is a very scenic place in Spain, surrounded by numerous natural parks and traditional villages.Visit Spain at least once and your memories will last forever!
