Spain: General InformationMaking up most of the Iberian Peninsula in Southwestern Europe, Spain is a spectacular and diverse country with endless tracts of wild and crinkled sierra and some spectacularly rugged stretches of coast between long and sandy Mediterranean beaches. The snow-capped Pyrenees separating Spain from France, offer breathtaking views and plentiful opportunities for skiing. The winding rivers and lush, green forests of the north are in complete contrast to the Moorish-influenced south.
Spain, or Espana – as the Spanish call their vibrant country, is one great land of fun and fiesta. It is also a country rich in history and heritage. This is the Spain of great artists and soulful music, of bloody bullfights, swirling Flamenco dancers and Carnival madness. This is the Spain of Gaudi, Dali and Picasso, of Goya and Velazquez displayed proudly in celebrated museums and galleries and this is the Spain of Medieval castles and Baroque churches, of Roman aqueducts, Islamic palaces and Gothic Cathedrals.
