Which region of Spain should I choose?
Spain has been one of the countries most often chosen by tourists for many years. Given its natural qualities, this should not surprise anyone. The country invites not only with the beauty of nature - local cuisine and a positive attitude of the local population significantly increase its recreational attractiveness. Marked by the influence of at least several cultures, it is also a heterogeneous, extremely interesting and diverse country.
Autonomous Catalonia with the capital in Barcelona is a choice for those seeking metropolitan tinsel, as well as mountain trips around the Pyrenees. Located in those areas, the famous Costa Brava is associated with beautiful beaches and luxury resorts. We can also see beautiful emerald islands, coastal rocks and cliffs. When we get to the capital, remember to see one of the strangest and most admired buildings around the world - the Sagrada Familia Cathedral. In many parts of the city we will find other works of its creator - Antonio Gaudi.
In turn, Valencia is a region consisting of three provinces: Valencia, Alicante and Castellon. It is an excellent choice for lovers of water sports, but also for sightseeing tourism. Probably the most famous Spanish dish, namely paella, comes from Valencia. According to tradition, it should be prepared on a wooden hearth to get a crunchy shell.
Other regions of Spain
Andalusia - the center of flamenco dance, corrida and fiesta. Access to the Atlantic Ocean, the Strait of Gibraltar and the Mediterranean Sea for centuries created a mix of Spanish folklore and Islamic influence. The name of the region comes from the Vandal tribe that evokes negative associations, but despite this it is a real cultural (and cultural) cauldron.
The Canary Islands, already called the Happy Islands by the ancient Greeks and Romans, guarantee paradise views and sunny weather that lasts all year round. Seven islands, including Gran Canaria, Fuertaventura, Tenerife and Lanzarote have been creating a complex that has been synonymous with exclusive relaxation for years. The real treasure here, however, are the inhabitants, who on each of the islands form actually a separate nation.
Madrid, in turn, as befits the capital, is Spain's main industrial, cultural and scientific center. The city is at the forefront of European metropolises in terms of quality of life, and due to its historical and architectural values it should become the key to understanding the whole kingdom.
It is extremely difficult to choose the most interesting part of Spain. It is an unobvious and unique country. When planning a vacation there in the Iberian Peninsula , let's also take care of trips to places located a little further from the hotel.
