What Makes Palma Special?
Are you considering spending your holidays in Palma de Mallorca? Here are some reasons that will help you make your decision!
Having a walk through the streets of Palma is such an awe-inspiring thing to do due to the many architectonic styles that the city has. The vivid historical centre brings you centuries back in time with its stone pavements and Gothic buildings such as the emblematic Cathedral of Palma or the so known Lonja. The Bellver’s Castle and the Almudaina’s Palace are also other relevant cultural focuses of the city. In addition to these magnificent architectonic structures, you have to visit the Arab Baths: undoubtedly, a place where to relax and enjoy of the Moorish past of the city.
In addition, spending your holidays in Palma is a great chance for you to get to know more about art. Indeed, there are several art galleries and museums. The most famous is Es Baluard, which is a museum of modern and contemporary art. As there are so many art galleries in the city, Palma takes profit of that and celebrates the ‘Nit de l’Art’ event at the end of September. This time of the year galleries and museums are opened for everyone and completely free, so you will be able to enjoy and learn about every kind of art while drinking sups of the best wines of the island. Art is not just about pictures and sculptures, art also involves music you will have a nice soundtrack in ‘Nit de l’Art’. It sounds like a plan, right?
Actually, if you like Jazz music you will find several places to listen to live Jazz concerts in Palma. The most outstanding one is found on the top of the Saratoga Hotel. You will be delighted by the harmony of the music while you enjoy of the wonderful views of the sea and the town.
People like to have a walk through the Borne, also known as the ‘golden mile’. Next to it you will find the main shopping street of Palma (Jaime III) where you will find the most prestigious shops and brands.
