Cheap Holidays to Spain Help You Visit Majestic Attractions
by Daisy Wilkinson Travel GuidesYou'll get to see diverse landscapes and enjoy varied
experiences during your time spent in Spain, a fascinating country located in
Southwestern Europe. The mountain ranges of the Pyrenees and Picos de Europa
are rich in natural beauty, while the Atlantic northwest of the country has
some charming cliffs. When you feel like unwinding on some fabulous beaches,
there are the islands of the Canaries and the Balearic. While exploring the
prominent cities of the country, you'll come across some great architectural
masterpieces. All these spectacular attractions have placed Spain among the
most visited countries in the world.
One of the most impressive attractions you'll get to
visit during your cheap
holidays to Spain is the Guggenheim Museum, which is located in Bilbao. It
was designed by the American-Canadian architect, Frank Gehry. Blocks of
limestone and titanium sheets were used to create this modern architectural
masterpiece. The construction of this museum turned the fortunes of Bilbao city
to such an extent that it led to the term 'The Bilbao Effect'. While exploring
this museum, you'll get the chance to see some amazing collections of modern
art in rotating displays. Travelling exhibitions are also put on display inside
this museum.
The Santiago de Compostela Cathedral is yet another
architectural wonder you must never miss while holidaying in this European
country. It was built between the 11th and 13th centuries to honour and store
the relics of the revered saint, St James. Pilgrims from different corners of
the world have been walking the pilgrimage route to this cathedral since the
Middle Ages. The interior of this church has retained its Early Romanesque
style despite the transformation of the exteriors in the Baroque style between
the 16th and 18th centuries.
Upon visiting the region of Costa del Sol located in
the southern parts of Spain, you'll get to unwind on its majestic beaches. They
are visited every year by the tourists from Northern Europe on the lookout for
the sunniest destinations with pleasant temperatures. An increase in such
tourists had initially given rise to some concerns of over-development.
However, the government stepped in at the right moment to ensure that no damage
was done to the natural landscapes, beaches, and the existing buildings.
Besides visiting the beaches, you can also indulge in some outdoor activities
while in Costa del Sol, such as golfing and yachting.
