6 Reasons to Visit Spain

Are you considering a European vacation? There are many reasons to make Spain your destination.

1. The fabulous art and architecture.

Everywhere you go in Spain, there is wonderful art and architecture to explore. You can find everything from Picasso and Gaudi to castles and cathedrals. There is over 1200 years worth of art and architecture to explore. It doesn't matter what time period within European art and architectural history you'd like to explore, you can find it in Spain.

2. Sun, warmth, sangria, and tapas.

If you visit Spain's southern coast, la costa del sol (the sun coast), you will be welcomed with a warm hospitality that rivals the hospitality anywhere else in the world. In addition, you will be treated to sangria, a sweet regional drink made from chilled red wine and fresh fruit, and tapas - small appetizers consisting of olives, small pieces of meat, and more.

In addition, beginning in March, you simply can't beat the weather of southern Spain. There is plenty of sunshine, a sea breeze in the air, and warmth in the air.

3. The wide variety of climates.

Spain has mountains, arid landscapes, thousands of miles of coasts, beautiful islands, and much more. In the north, in the province of Galicia, you can find a more northern, sea-dominated environment similar to the United Kingdom. However, in the province of Extremadura, you will encounter harsh winters and sweltering summers. Near Toledo and Madrid, you will find a more arid landscape with crystal clear skies. No matter where you go in Spain, you will find one thing in common - a dazzling sunset.

4. Ease of travel.
