Description Mallorca, Spain

Mallorca can overtake a few hours - is an island of contrasts in everything: nature, landscape, architecture. Here is a stone's throw from the steep slopes of the mountains to the gentle shores of the sea, from the vineyards of the valleys to pine forests. Holidays in Mallorca a first class hotel, equipped beaches, shops, restaurants, cafeterias, bars, discotheques, concert halls, clubs, water parks, variety shows and even bullfights. Holidays in Majorca - a kitchen, which will leave no one indifferent.

Mallorca - includes the number 5 in the Balearic Islands archipelago. The largest of them (area 3640 sq. Km-long coastline of 554 km) is known as Mallorca. Situated at the crossroads of trade routes between southern and northern Europe, Mallorca, with its fertile soil and excellent climate for many centuries was the object of desire of warlike civilizations: Carthaginians, Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs. In 1229 King James I of Aragon the Conqueror conquered Majorca from the Moors. Since then, its fate is inextricably linked with Spain.

The capital of the island of La Palma - a great city. Its 323,000 residents make up more than half the population of Mallorca. Palma - is the embodiment of another Majorca contrast, namely the contradiction between the life of a vibrant, aristocratic, modern and commercial, on the one hand, and the rural, provincial - with another.
