Barcelona, center of catalunya, well known for the summer olympic games it hosted. Visit the Sagrada Familia, the parque Guell with its wonderful Gaudi artwork, the mountain Montuijc and the ramblas.
Valencia, about 2 hours in the north of Alicante, a place to visit if you are around the Costa Blanca area. Valencia is very well known for its Fallas. Held from 15 th until 19 th March, the Fallas are the biggest tourist attraction. Like a holy week, with its street celebrations and parades, shown like nowhere else.
Seville, Granada and Cordoba, andalusian cities with exciting places where you can find the arabic influence on Spain from the past. The biggest and most famous attraction there is Granadas Alhambra, a must for every spain tourist.
Last but not least, you should visit the Costa Blanca, not just because we think its one of the best places in Spain, but because it offers such a variety of attractions, from the vivid Benidorm nightlife to the quieter Denia and Calpe countryside’s. But this is just our “subjective” point of view.

Corrida
Those who have not understood Corrida would never understand Spaniards ?? The words of the noble Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorka. These words also belong to Lorka: corrida is the biggest and the most poetical value of Spain.
Spain is impossible to imagine without corrida. It is a way of life.

Corrida appeared here in the middle ages. Till the XVIII century only single riders took part in it but with the popularity increase of this event riders were replaced by pedestrian fighters.

Goya and Picasso, Rembrandt and Hemingway and many other famous artists of Spain were fond of Corrida or "tavromakhy" - the fight of the bulls. They perceived it like a part of the culture of the country, national character, and traditions. Bulls are specially raised for this event on the farms of Andalusia and Castalia. They enjoy liberty for two years and after the connoisseurs decide if the bull can take part in the fight.

But only a four year old bull whose weight is about 450 kilos can be taken to one of the arenas of the country.
Federico Garcia Lorka once said death comes to the arena surrounded by magnificent beauty. The corrida season begins in Valencia in March and ends in Madrid and Saragossa in October.

When considering a journey to Spain don't forget to arrange a travel insurance policy against the risks that might occur during your stay in a foreign country.
