Spain

Spain is a country of vibrant cities, stunning coastlines, and rich cultural heritage. From the lively streets of Barcelona to the historic palaces of Seville, every region has its own unique charm. Wander through the ancient alleyways of Toledo, relax on the golden beaches of Costa Brava, or explore the vineyards of La Rioja.

In the north, San Sebastián is famous for its beaches and pintxos, Bilbao blends modern architecture with Basque traditions, and Santiago de Compostela welcomes pilgrims from around the world. Central Spain is home to Madrid’s royal palaces, Segovia’s medieval castle, and Salamanca’s historic university. In the south, Andalusia offers the Alhambra’s Moorish beauty, Córdoba’s Mezquita, and the flamenco-filled streets of Seville. The islands of Ibiza, Mallorca, Menorca, and Tenerife provide a mix of nightlife, natural beauty, and relaxation.
