» Introduction of Spain « |
| |
| Spain is much more than the Costa del Sol and tacky souvenir shops. Ideal for relaxing beach holidays or a tour of the big Spanish cities, it is easy to see why people become 'addicted' to Spain. One of the biggest attractions people find in Spain is the beaches. If you can look beyond the typical touristy beaches, you will find some amazingly secluded stretches of sand and blue sea. |
| |
| Travel to Spain is easy with various hotels and resorts. You’ll experience excellent climate and the beaches long and sandy will leave an indelible impression. Regional variety of food and drink gives you a lasting memory. More than 50 million foreigners a year visit Spain, yet you can also travel for days and hear nothing but Spanish. |

| Geographically, Spain's diversity is immense. There are endless tracts of wild and crinkled sierra to explore, as well as some spectacularly rugged stretches of coast between the beaches. Culturally, the country is littered with superb old buildings, from Roman aqueducts and Islamic palaces to Gothic cathedrals. Almost every second village has a medieval castle. Spain has been the home of some of the world's great artists — El Greco, Velázquez, Goya, Picasso, Dalí — and has museums and galleries to match. The country vibrates with music of every kind —from the drama of flamenco to the melancholy lyricism of the Celtic music and gaitas (bagpipes) of the northwest. |

| Barcelona has almost become Spain's second capital city; it has become so popular in recent years. The inspiring architecture of Gaudi is breathtaking. One of the oldest inhabited regions of Europe, Spain is renowned for bullfights, olive oil, museums, wine, paella, flamenco, literature, flamboyant and colorful fiestas, and the Costa del Sol. It is drenched in the historical pageantry of empire and conquistadors, the artistic legacy of Goya, Velázquez, Picasso and Dalí, and the romance of Don Quixote. |
