The north
It might seem easy to overlook the rugged north of Spain in favour of the sunsoaked south, but you’ll be missing out on some of the country’s best kept secrets if you do. Known as the green Spain, the northwestern region of Galicia overflows with Celtic history, wild coastlines, and arguably the best seafood in Spain. Of course, the nearby Basque country of the northeast is a world unto itself, with mountainous peaks, rocky coves and a culture all of its own.
The south
Look beyond the sunshine and sangria; you’ll quickly realise that there’s so much more on offer here in the southernmost tip of the country. Across Andalucía, you’ll find the clear blue skies and whitewashed buildings typical of Spain, with the city of Seville shining out brightly above the rest. Down in Granada, the historic Alhambra is a heartbreakingly beautiful palace straight from a fairy tale, while the sparkling coastlines of Vejer de la Frontera are still untouched by tourism.
The cities
Of course, there’s more to Spain than its dazzling beaches and picturesque countryside: the vibrant and fast paced cities are full to the brim with a hearty lust for life. From the exuberant cool of Barcelona to the exciting metropolis of Madrid, the historic legacy of Cordoba to the cultural dynamite of Bilbao, Spain’s cities are a smorgasbord of possibility and wonder.
