Lively fiestas, delicious cuisines and splendid beaches are among the few factors that have usually seen Spain rated top in the travelling itineraries of most tourists. However, because of the diverse experiences it has to offer, chances are that you might end up missing out on the best places as you are caught up in equally great but less visited places. Since almost each city in Spain has something to offer, you need to know which ones would offer you the best experiencing depending on what you have in mind. These cities are great destinations in Spain that are highly celebrated and offer the best experience.
Barcelona.
A vibrant culture, buzzing nightlife, lively shopping experiences and even historic architectures are all among the experiences that Barcelona has to offer. Simply put, a trip to Barcelona is a more comprehensive tour of Europe without the equal amount of travelling required. Some of the monumental places that you can visit while here include the Sagrada Familia Church as well as the Basa Batllo.
Granada.
From its location at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Granada has a special place in the hearts of most tourists. While here a great deal of tourists will indulge in the animated nightlife, the spectacular attractions that include the Alhambra and the Pinnacle of Moorish Art as well as the different traditional cultures that offer a diverse range of lifestyles that you can marvel at.
Pamplona.
Pamplona might not be the most advanced and trendy place in Spain owing to its medieval walls, gothic, baroque and neo classical buildings. While these can be quite the unique experience that encapsulates you in the past, the real eye catcher here are the festivities that take place in early July. They include the Brass Bands, fireworks and the one that gets most people coming to this northern Spain capital is the running of bulls. The adrenalin rush that the natives get from this traditional ceremony of running in front of a herd of stampeding bulls in the narrow cobbled streets of the city is one that you will live to remember. It may sound dangerous but truth be told, you may find more humor and laughter in this event than you would at a stand-up comedy show.
Bilbao.
Also referred to as the architectural hotspot of Spain, it is only fair that Bilbao is home to one of the most important structures of its time better known as the Guggenheim Museum. Before you even get to step inside to catch a glimpse of the magnificent collection of modern art, you will be blown away by the soaring titanium curves that feature strongly on the building’s exterior. The local custom of special appetizers that is known as Chiqueteo is a must experience not to mention the fact that Bilbao is the Cod capital and features numerous delicious recipes.
The magnificent lifestyles and rampaging bulls might feature heavily in some of the destinations in Spain. However, there is also a wide range of places that those that are looking for some peace and serenity can visit. It is a great destination for a family holiday and even better for those that are looking to get away as couple. All you have to do is know what your trip is going to be about then you can be able to pick out the best places for you to visit in Spain.
