Spain Tourism

Hola. A flamenco beat and the craving for authentic paella still drive the tourism in Spain.

This is Spain: a lively land of ritualistic celebrations where everyone is invited and local fiestas on the streets run long after midnight; a country of otherworldly architecture ranging from Mudéjar to Modernist; a tempting smorgasbord of delectable food and bubbling wine which are considered national obsessions; a creative sanctum where talents like Dalí, Picasso, and Gaudí left their indelible impressions; and a magnet for sun-seekers, honeymooners, and art lovers from all over the world. Only those who haven’t set foot in this country would argue that going on a tour of Spain for a week is better than an afterlife in heaven. Find information about Spain attractions, things to do, weather patterns, how to reach, and more to plan Spain holidays without any hassle.

Is there any Spain travel guide better than Lord Byron poems devoted to Spain? No other country is quite as quintessentially unique and flamboyantly romantic as Spain. From the metropolises like Madrid and Barcelona to the high Pyrenees and sunny islands, the charm of Spain doesn’t seem to wane for travelers. A trip to Spain includes fun around every corner that can be best enjoyed with best Spain tours.

Spain's thriving and hip capital, Madrid deserves a place among the best travel destinations in Europe. The energetic metropolis is famous for its wide array of museums, delicious cuisine, and a legendary nightlife. Royal Palace of Madrid, Buen Retiro Park, El Escorial, Puerta del Sol, and Cibeles Fountain are major places to visit in Madrid. Shopping for souvenirs at El Rastro, admiring artworks at Museo Nacional Del Prado, riding the Teleférico de Madrid for a bird’s-eye view of Manzanares River, and wandering through Gran Vía are popular things to do in Madrid.

Like Madrid, expect your Barcelona trip to be filled with tourists throughout the year. The celebrated works of Gaudí in Barcelona leave your mouth open in amazement. La Sagrada Família, Museu Picasso, Montjuïc, Parc Guëll, and La Rambla are famous attractions in Barcelona. Travelers can also hire a tour guide in Spanish or English as per their convenience while touring the city. The Barcelona tourist guide would guide you around world-class museums and renowned music festivals such as The Festival del Grec in June, each barrio (neighborhood) in Barcelona has loads of culture to offer.

Among the popular festivals in Spain include La Tomatina – held on the last Wednesday in August in the town of Buñol – and the Running of the Bulls – held in July in Pamplona. Sunbathing on the beaches of the Mediterranean on the Costa Del Sol, hiking the beautiful Pyrenees mountains, watching a matador escape a rowdy bull in Madrid, and swirling hips with flamenco dancers are the best things to do in Spain.

Why should I visit Spain

If a country is filled with iconic monuments, tourist-friendly cities, rich culture and an effervescent party atmosphere, it's not really hard to see why Spain is ranked among the most popular tourist destinations in Europe. The coastal villages and resorts lined on Spain’s sun-drenched Mediterranean coast enjoy more than 300 days of sunshine. Places like Barcelona, Valencia, and the Balearic Islands get the major chunk of tourists who come in search of the early winter sun. Cities like Madrid and Barcelona are well connected to other destinations in Europe. Travel in Spain is relatively cheaper than other European countries like France or Italy. And to top it all off, Spanish cuisine is diverse, mouth-watering, and ranging in flavors as per regions from Valencia and Andalucia to Catalonia and Basque Country.

For those looking to veer off the popular tourist trail should pay a visit to the Canary Islands where quaint fishing villages and secluded beaches await. Get caught up in artful flamenco dance performances at Sevilla, explore medieval palaces of Moorish royalty, and admire the Guggenheim Museum’s collection of contemporary art in Bilbao. Whether it’s dancing their worries away with swirls of flamenco, driving out their fears by running with the bulls or splashing tomatoes on stranger’s faces, Spaniards have a special talent for celebrating all good aspects of life.
