Top Things To Do in SpainVisit the Wonders of Granada
If you are interested in the heritage and history of Spain, then a visit to Granada is a must. Make sure to visit The Alhambra – it is a fortified palace, created by the Moors, and the views and architecture is an absolute delight. It is a UNESCO World Heritage listed place along with the city of Toledo, which is to the south of the Spanish capital, Madrid. Overlooking the River Tagus, the architecture is a merging of the Christian, Jewish and Moorish cultures and is a must visit.
Enjoy the festivities of a Fiesta
In Spain, the fiestas are mostly religious in origin, but that does not mean that they will be without fun. The striking processions are well worth seeing and the partying goes on until dawn! Cities such as Alicante and Malaga are home to some of the top festivals in Spain throughout the summer, such as the St Johns Bonfires Festival, and the La Féria de Malaga (Malaga’s Annual Fair). For culture and fun, check out one of these festivals!
Experience Spanish Architecture
Spain and its islands are home to some of the most astounding architecture – you could spend some time enjoying the architecture of Antoni Gaudi in Barcelona, in particular the Parc Guell, which has many buildings and wonderful sculpture designs. Well worth visiting is the architecture of Frank Gehry, which can be viewed all over Spain, from the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to the Malaga Conference and Convention Centre. Elsewhere, check out the designs of César Manrique on Lanzarote. The surrealistic work of Salvador Dali is magnificent and you can also see this in the town of Figueres.
Sun and Beaches
Obviously, some of the main reasons people go to Spain are for sun and sand. With so many beaches to choose from, any region along the coast that you visit will be blessed with the most impressive beaches. Everyone knows the most popular areas, from Malaga and Alicante, to the Canaries, Ibiza, Lanzarote and Tenerife. Beaches are plentiful and there is enough for everyone!
