A Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral. Construction began in 1229 and was not completed until 1601. It is located in the old town of Palma, between the Almudaina Palace and the Episcopal Palace, surrounded by tall sandstone walls. Antoni Gaudí was invited to participate in the restoration project.
Fundació Joan Miró
Joan Miró is another outstanding artist from Catalonia, on par with Picasso and Dalí, and a master of 20th-century surrealism. His works are filled with childlike innocence and naivety, and many people seeing his work for the first time feel as if they are looking at children's drawings. He uses a pure and personalized artistic language to express his sensitivity and rebellion against political and social events. The sculptures in the museum, made from various 'junk' Miró picked up during his walks, are quite interesting. From the large rooftop terrace, you can also enjoy a panoramic view of Montjuïc.
Porto Cristo, meaning 'Port of Christ', is located in the Balearic Islands, about 10 minutes from the city of Manacor. In 1260, locals found a cross on a stranded fishing boat and believed it to be a sign of Jesus' arrival, hence the name of the port. Porto Cristo is picturesque, tranquil, and romantic, with small boats still docking there. Nearby, there are also famous tourist attractions such as the Drach Caves (Cuevas del Drach).
Serra de Tramuntana
The northwest coastline of Mallorca is home to the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area boasts stunning scenery, rugged coastlines, beautiful olive trees, pine forests, and red-soil villages. Serra de Tramuntana is also a great place for hiking. Driving through the mountains is quite a challenge, with winding roads that can be nerve-wracking, but the breathtaking views along the way will be the best reward for your adventurous journey.
Soller Centenary Train
Soller, located in the western part of Mallorca Island, became wealthy in the 19th century through citrus cultivation and trade. Many buildings in the town have a very distinct modernist style, reminiscent of Gaudi. It is recommended to take the tram from Port de Soller to Soller town to experience the unique tranquility and rustic charm of the area. This train carries a century of history, with wooden decorations inside exuding a strong sense of antiquity, and the scenery along the way is beautiful and spectacular.
