Description
From the Badia de Palma Bay rises the city of Palma, a small, ancient and still one of the most cosmopolitan places in Europe. It's a mix of historical places, landmarks and cathedrals that allow visitors to discover its Roman, Moorish and Christian roots, and still enjoy views of beautiful modernist buildings. It has it all. Learn all about the Talayotic tribe and the Romans, about the times of Moors and Christians. Get acquainted from the 17th-century Ayuntamiento, Palma’s town hall and it’s famous giant wooden roof, to the medieval Church of Santa Eulalia, dedicated to the martyr and patron saint of Barcelona, from the gothic 13th-century Convent of San Francisco to the Banys Àrabs, or Arab Baths, one of the few remnants of surviving Moorish heritage, this city is an eye-catcher. Notice the 13th-century Catalan Gothic Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma atop the former citadel, and opposed to it the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, former Alcázar of Palma, a former Arabian fortress later claimed as the official royal residence, where the Spanish Royal family still spend their summers. Come walk with us through its narrow medieval streets, aristocratic houses, and historical baroque churches, vibrant squares and markets, making for an unforgettable experience in the capital of the Balearic islands.
