About Spain
Spain is really several countries in one: Barcelona's Gaudí skyline and beach culture, Madrid's museum-heavy centre and late-night energy, Andalusia's Moorish palaces and flamenco, and the Balearic and Canary Islands' package-holiday coastline. Long lunches, later dinners and a genuine siesta rhythm shape daily life outside the big cities, and regions like Catalonia and the Basque Country have their own languages and distinct identity. It's a country for both city breaks and slow rural loops, from the Camino de Santiago's pilgrim routes to Andalusian white villages. Summers inland and in the south run brutally hot, which pushes savvy visitors toward spring, autumn or the cooler north coast.

Plan your visit to Spain
Discover Spain
Spain runs from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, taking in world cities (Madrid, Barcelona, Seville), the Balearic and Canary islands, and a coastline of resort beaches. Long, warm summers and a late-night culture make it Europe’s festival-and-fiesta heartland.
Each region feels distinct: Catalonia’s Barcelona pairs Gaudí with city beaches, Andalusia brings flamenco and Moorish palaces, the Basque north is a food powerhouse, and Ibiza and Mallorca anchor the island scene. Fast AVE trains link the big cities.
Top places in Spain
- Barcelona — Gaudí’s Sagrada Família, Gothic lanes and city beaches in one walkable city.
- Madrid — The capital: world-class museums (the Prado), grand plazas and late-night life.
- Seville & Andalusia — Flamenco, the Alcázar and the spring Feria — the soul of southern Spain.
- Ibiza — The world’s clubbing capital, plus quiet coves and a UNESCO old town.
- Granada & the Sierra Nevada — The Alhambra below the highest peaks of mainland Spain.
