To be included in the list of most visited places is such a great achievement for a country like Spain. It only means that Spain is one of the most interesting and most beautiful travelers destinations in the globe. If you're wondering why Spain achieved this feat, here are my thoughts about it. Spain has various tourist destinations that are truly great and amazing to see. For instance, if you're looking for stunning beaches, you can drop by in the areas like Segovia, Andalusia, Toledo, and Salamanca. There are also other beautiful beaches in other areas of Spain like Rias Baixas, Mallorca, Salou, Valencia, Benidorm, Catalonia, Canary Islands, The Cantabrico, and Balearic Islands. But if you are the type of person who appreciates interesting destinations, Barcelona and Madrid are your perfect choices. You can also visit other interesting locations like Pontevedra and Vigo in Galicia, Sevilla, Cordoba, and Granada. Aside from these amazing destinations, Spain is also famous for its palatable cuisine.
If there is one thing sure about a Spanish cuisine, that would be no room or reason for one to be hungry. Why? Because various lines of restaurants, food market, and vendors are available everywhere in Spain's inner cities. Also, what makes a Spanish cuisine distinguished is the freshness, availability, and quality of meals and dishes. Being adventurous is also important if you are exploring the different variations of Spanish cuisine. Trying out the dishes that you haven't eaten yet will surely widen your knowledge in Spanish cuisine. Also, when you are seated in a restaurant, it is a must to observe what other people are ordering, so the next time you dine out again, you now know what next dishes to order.
The delicious Jamon Serrano, also called as the dry-cured Spanish ham, of Spain is a familiar product in any food market and establishment around the world. Like the Italain prosciutto, Jamon Serrano is usually served raw and in thin slices or pieces. Since Spain is known as the pioneer in dried ham production, it is best to taste the Jamon Serrano hams in the dining and food establishments of Spain. When you go for a vacation, never forget to order or ask for a dish with Serrano ham if ever you will dine in Spain's finest restaurants and diners.
When I am asked why I want to live in Spain, I can instantly name a lot of good reasons. Among the notable reasons that I can explain are Spain's language, health diet, diverse leisure activities, and an artistic culture. I have always known that Spain's artistic culture has a lot more to offer than its traditional bullfights, dance, and music. It has been and will always be one one of the cultural icons of Europe.
