Discover Spain.

Do you know that Spain is one of the three most visited countries in the world? From what I read, aside from the hospitality and good food, Spain has breathtaking sceneries, has rich heritage of sights and monuments and has interesting customs and traditions.

The Torre de Bujaco or the Bujaco Tower is 25 meters tall and considered the most beautiful tower in Spain. It has an almost square floor plan and was known as the Clock Tower during the 16th and 18th centuries. It’s now open to the public. Muralla de Avila or the Wall Avila is a fence surrounding the town of Avila. Its perimeter is 2,516 meters, has 2,500 battlements, 87 towers and 9 gates. Seems like you’ll be needing more than a day to experience this incredible surrounding so be sure to check out hotels in spain when preparing for a trip.

You then might also need to check yourself in some hotels in barcelona as you might want to see Sagrada Familia, La Boqueria and Gothic quarter. Sagrada Familia is a colossal Roman Catholic basilica that has been under construction since 1882. It is an enormously grand building and truly a must-see. This is considered one of the most popular attractions in Spain. La Boqueria is a large public market and the most popular market it town. It has an interesting architecture and offers a great assortment of products. The Gothic quarter is the center of the old city of Barcelona. It is a maze of many streets with opening into plaza.

And while you’re at it, you might want to book yourself in some hotels in madrid and visit Prado museum, botanical gardens and royal palace. The Prado museum is one of Europe’s great museums and houses a collection of over 10,000 works of art. Then have a leisurely and relaxing walk in the botanical gardens which is just next door to the museum. Then finish off your trip with a visit to the Royal Palace which is considered by many to be one of the finest palaces in Europe.

Travelling to Spain will truly be an unforgettable trip.
