The Best of Spain
|
|
The Alhambra, Granada
The legendary Moorish palace complex is a monument to sensuality and contemplative decoration.
Modernisme, Barcelona
The sculptural forms of Barcelona's modernista architects - most famously Gaudí - define the city's exuberant architectural heritage.
A night on the tiles, Madrid
Delight in the capital's most traditional of rituals - a night of bar hopping and clubbing rounded off by a dawn reviver of hot chocolate and churros .
The Mezquita, Córdoba
Nothing can prepare you for the breathtaking beauty of the Grand Mosque of Córdoba - one of the world's great buildings.
Wine
Spain's formidable variety of quality wines remain little known outside the peninsula.
Aqueduct, Segovia
This solid piece of Roman engineering, over 800m long, has been spanning the Castilian town for nearly 2000 years.
Picasso
Picasso's portrayal of the agony of Spain's struggle and suffering against fascism in Guernica is considered his strongest work.
Coto de Doñana
Doñana's unique habitats enable this vast national park to host a myriad of birds and other wildlife, including the Iberian lynx.
Las Alpujarras
Drive over lemons and walk old mulepaths in this picturesque region of mountain villages nestling in the southern folds of the Sierra Nevada.
Toledo
The capital of Medieval Spain and a symbol of religious tolerance has changed little since its depiction in El Greco's paintings.
