Best places to visit in Spain
- Barcelona: This is one of the most popular cities in Spain for visitors. Barcelona is home to incredible history, culture, and amazing architecture. The highlights of what to see here are La Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, and Casa Mila, all designed by the famous artist Gaudi. When you’re done sightseeing, stroll down La Rambla, the main street for shopping, or head to the beach.
- Madrid: The capital and the largest city in Spain, Madrid is full of personality. Visit the lively Plaza Mayor, the main square. You’ll also want to check out El Retiro Park and the Royal Palace of Madrid. For shopping and amazing food, head to the Gran Via.
- Mallorca: This is the perfect destination for beachgoers and outdoor adventurers. Mallorca is home to the Drach Caves, an underground tunnel of interconnected caves. You’ll also want to see the lighthouse at Cap de Formentor and the Castell de Bellver for panoramic views of the island and the coast. And finally, check out the beautiful beach of Calo d’es Moro.
Winter in Spain
Spain is still beautiful even in the winter! With milder temperatures, you can enjoy some outdoor activities. Check out places like Seville to dip your toes into some history. Or you can head into the Sierra Nevadas for some skiing. Our SIXT branches offer SUVs with winter tires if you’re planning to drive in the mountains. Cities like Barcelona and Madrid also offer plenty of indoor activities for some relief from the winter chill.
