Spain is famous for its friendly inhabitants, relaxed lifestyle, its cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and world-famous folklore and festivities, and its history as the core of the vast Spanish Empire. The most popular beaches are the ones along the Mediterranean coast and on the Canary Islands. Meanwhile, for hiking, the mountains of Sierra Nevada in the south, the Central Cordillera and the northern Pyrenees are the best places. Historically, Spain has been an important crossroads: between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, between North Africa and Europe, and as Europe began colonizing the New World, between Europe and the Americas. As such, the country is blessed with a fantastic collection of historical landmarks. The Spanish are very passionate about their cuisine, based on great food and wine. Spanish food can be described as quite light with a lot of vegetables and a huge variety of meat and fish.

It is a paradise for outdoor activities thanks to a maritime climate that is mild throughout the year. Relatively sober rather than flamboyant, this region is not yet as well known to the general public as other, sunnier, regions that attract more tourists. And yet, far from the crowds and mass tourism, it is a delightfully green area offering rest and relaxation to those in search of authenticity. Its archaeological sites dating from the Palaeolithic era and the cave art of its prehistoric grottoes have earned the region classification as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
