Spain, the second largest country in Europe, is positioned on the Iberian Peninsula with Portugal to the west, the Mediterranean to the east and France to the north.
• A perfect holiday climate, endless beaches and a diverse culture
with a rich history are a few of the reasons why Spain is the world's
third most popular tourist destination. Spain's capital, Madrid,
offers an exciting array of choice to visitors.
• The museo del Prado contains one of the finest art collections
anywhere in the world, while the nearby Reina Sofia Art Centre is
a permanent home to Picasso's Guernica.
• In the neighbourhood is the parque del Buen Retiro (Retiro
Park), a beautiful royal park used as a peaceful retreat from the
city. The Basilica de San Isidro and the cathedral de Nuestra Senora
de la Almudena are just two in a vast number of magnificent churches
throughout Madrid.
• The enigmatic city
of Barcelona north east of Madrid has been imprinted with the
legacy of Gaudi in the uncompleted church, Sagrada Familia.
• Miro and Picasso also worked
in the city and first-rate galleries and museums are home to their
work.
• Hosting the Olympics in 1992
drew international interest to Barcelona and it continues to maintain
its status as a premier European destination.
• On the eastern coast of Spain,
Valencia boasts the Palace of the Marques de Dos Aguas. A number
of ancient cathedrals and museums help to conserve the rich heritage
of the province.
• Capital of the Costa
del Sol, Malaga is a thriving urban centre on the southern tip of
Spain. An historic old town and remarkable Picasso museum ensure vast
numbers of visitors to the region throughout the year.
• The historic Southern town of Seville encapsulates this country's
turbulent history with the huge cathedral La Giralda (minaret tower),
Alcazar Palace and the Palacio de Don Pedro with its Moorish origins.
• Other areas enjoyed by travellers,
include the mountains of the Pyrenees, Pamplona and San Sebastien
all in the north, the ancient town Toledo and the dance Mecca's in
