In the cities, narrow twisting old streets suddenly open out to views of daring modern architecture, while spit-and-sawdust bars serving wine from the barrel rub shoulders with blaring, glaring discos. Travel is easy, accommodation plentiful, the climate benign, the people relaxed, the beaches long and sandy, the food and drink easy to come by and full of regional variety. More than 50 million foreigners a year visit Spain, yet you can also travel for days and hear nothing but Spanish. When To Go Spain can be enjoyable any time of year.The ideal months to visit are May, June andSeptember (plus April and October in thesouth). At these times you can rely on good-to-excellent weather, yet avoid the extreme heat - and the main crush ofSpanish and foreign tourists - of July andAugust. But there's decent weather in some partsof Spain virtually year round. Winter alongthe southern and southeastern Mediterraneancoasts is mild, while in the height ofsummer you can retreat to the northwest, tobeaches or high mountains anywhere to escapeexcessive heat.The best festivals are mostly concentratedbetween Semana Santa (the week leading up to Easter Sunday) and Septemberto October. Factoid Pablo Ruiz? Spaniards have three names: a given name ( nombre ), and two surnames ( apellidos ). The first surname is the persons' father's first surname, the second is the mother's first surname. So Picasso's full name was Pablo Ruiz Picasso.
