ATTRACTIONS: PLACES TO VISIT IN SPAIN
Royal Palace Madrid Royal Palace - Madrid
The 18th-century Royal Palace, former residence of the Spanish Kings is also home to the world's largest library, art collection and gardens. It is still used by the present king for state receptions.
Sagrada Familia Sagrada Familia - Barcelona
Gaudí began the surreal temple in 1882 and it still hasn't been finished. It was originally intended to be a modest, neo-gothic church, but now it has become the most famous building in Barcelona.

MADRID OVERVIEW:
Madrid is the highest capital in Europe. It can thus be one of the world's hottest cities in summer. In winter, steamy café windows and all-night street festivals beckon, and the famous blue skies are particularly crisp and bright. Much of the city's appeal comes from its vivacious people and the electricity they generate.

BARCELONA OVERVIEW:
Spain's traditional alternate capital, Barcelona is a millennium older than Madrid. Barcelona often seems to have more in common with Marseille or Milan than with Madrid or the rest of Spain.

It is said that the name Barcelona derives from the arrival at her shores from Africa of the hero Hercules almost 2,000 years B.C. According to legend, this expedition was made up of nine boats 'Barca' (boat) 'nona' (nine) with colonists aboard. Now thousands of tourist flock to Barcelona to absorb it's rich culture, fabulous weather and of course its fine architecture.

IBIZA OVERVIEW:
Famous over the world for its unique charm and beautiful climate, this Balearic island combines entertainment with a respect for tradition. The blue sky and sea, white sandy beaches, green gardens and the surrounding countryside are in harmony with the warm golden sun. Surrounded by such beauty, your stay will be truly pleasurable.
