Tourism in Spain is now almost synonymous with Ibiza. It is known for its perennial party culture clubs, pubs and discotheques. Juxtaposed to this, Spain also offers a quiet and peaceful holiday in the Basque Country or Pais Vasco, situated to the north of Madrid bounded by the Pyrenees Mountains and the Bay of Biscay. For a dose of art, visit the Museo del Prado, Madrid’s premier tourist attraction which boasts of one of the best art collections in the world.

A trip to the picturesque city of Barcelona is a must, especially to Parc Guell. Built by Antoni Gaudi, with its colourful and imaginative layout, it provides for a psychedelic experience. The wildlife of Spain is exhibited in the Donana National Park. The Guggenheim in Bilbao, touted as ‘the best building of our times’, is a museum designed by Frank Ghery. It attracts millions of tourists every year and houses the work of all famous twentieth century artists, from Picasso to Rothko.
