Y Viva Espaa Spain has been a favourite playground of British, Dutch, and German tourists who escape the dreary climates of their own countries for some summer sun by the sea, with copious quantities of sex, and sangria stirred in for good measure. Quite a cocktail for the 18-30 crowd. For the culturally inclined there is plenty of that too. Hemingway made bullfighting popular in America literature, but these are all clichs. Of course you'll want to have paella on the coast, and Spain wouldn't be the same without a little flamenco dancing and intricate guitar. After a few days, you'll even be an expert on the castanets yourself. Several regions in Spain have kept a separate identity, culturally and linguistically. These include the Basques around the Bay of Biscay; the Galicians in north-western Spain; and the Catalans of north-eastern Spain. The nomadic Spanish Gypsies, Gitanos, are a separate ethnic group. Spanish Culture The Roman Catholic religion has played an important part in Spanish life and culture. Spanish painters have contributed greatly to the global work on display in museums around the world. Among the most famous are El Greco, Diego Velzquez, Francisco Goya, Salvador Dal, and the prolific Pablo Picasso. Visit the Prado, in Madrid, for works by El Greco, Velzquez, Bartolom Estban Murillo, Goya, Botticelli, Titian, and Rembrandt. The National Museum of Modern Art, also in Madrid, concentrates on Spanish painting after 1800. And of course the new Guggenheim Museum opened in Bilbao on October 18th, 1997. There are 19 galleries in the building; considered something of a work of art in itself. Madrid Madrid : The capital of Spain lies in the middle of the Castillian plain, 646 metres above sea level. Madrid Airport : Transportation to and from Madrid/Barajas airport and other useful information about the terminal itself.

Las Golondrinas : Take a boat trip around the port and coastal area of Barcelona and see the city from another angle. Barcelona Attractions Barcelona Aquarium : Barcelona's Oceanarium is a synthesis of the Mediterranean sea.

Valencia's Holy Grail, one of a dozen claimed to be the original, was used by Pope John Paul II during the 1992 Papal visit to Valencia. Just 350km from the two most important Spanish cities, Madrid and Barcelona, Valencia is easily accessible from either of them... or you could base yourself at the centre of the Spanish Mediterranean coast, opposite the Balearic Islands, and easily travel to both of them.

Malaga Web : Between the sea and the sierra, this part of Eastern Andalucia is well visited by tourists to the beaches of the Costa del Sol. Palma : They call Mallorca the Island of tranquillity; or isle of light and beauty. I guess the lights are from the discos, and the beauty the half naked girls. Anyway, outside of rave season the island does get some of it's tranquillity back. Pamplona : There is more to Pamplona than the running of the bulls. Located on the fertile plain of the river Arga, Pamplona is a city full of history and deep-rooted traditions.

Costa Blanca Tourism : The Provincial Tourist Board of the Costa Blanca is an autonomous organisation, part of the Alicante Provincial Council. Balearic Islands The main islands are Mallorca and Ibiza but the smaller Menorca and Formentera shouldn't be overlooked if you want something a little quieter. Menorca Attractions Menorca is a vast open-air museum with a wealth of diverse historical monuments. Of particular note are the Paleo-Christian basilicas and monuments from the Talayotic culture. Formentera Attractions Crystal clear waters and fine sands blend in with an atmosphere of relaxation and tranquillity to make a visit to Formentera an attractive option to get away from it all. Ibiza Ibiza is now world famous. What many don't know, is that beyond the glittering club scene and the never-ending parties, there is one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean just waiting to be discovered. Our tip is to hire a car, arm yourself with a detailed island map, brush up on a few Spanish phrases and go out exploring!

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Thinking of a vacation in London? Thanks to affordable vacation airfares to London, this could be the perfect time to travel to London. Here's how to plan an utterly romantic London vacation that can save you both time and money. 1. Research London Vacation Deals Online. In advance of your London trip, become a fare watcher. Check a variety of vacation travel sites. Rates to London change frequently, and it's important to understand the price range before you purchase your vacation airfare and hotel stay. The airport code for Heathrow Airport in London, England is LHR. Tip: Keep in mind that midweek vacation departures to London and returns are cheaper than weekend ones. As you fare-search, you'll find that the online travel agents don't all return the same flight choices but they do provide a good idea of what's available to London. Before you click a "Buy" button, also check the dedicated site of the airline you prefer to fly on your vacation. 2. Study London Maps . London was not designed to flummox tourists, but it can confuse first-timers on vacation. Before you go, check out London maps online to acquaint yourself with the various areas of the city and where the major attractions are located. Once in London, don't travel without a map. Tip: Don't waste money or vacation time buying a London map if your hotel can supply one free. You can also pick up maps and other free tourist information at the Britain Visitor Centre, 1 Regent Street, Piccadilly Circus. Tip: If you ever get lost in London, hire a taxi. Drivers study for years to learn every nook and cranny of the system, and it's a matter of pride for one to safely deliver you to your destination. London Tube and double-decker buses that run frequently are, of course, more inexpensive ways to get around on your vacation. 3. Choose a London Hotel in the "Right" Neighborhood. What's your passion? If the monarchy, tradition, and parliamentary system of England fascinate you, select a hotel in Westminster close to Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, and the Houses of Parliament. Hope to see plenty of theater on your London vacation? Find a hotel close to Covent Garden . Are you fashion-focused? Then a Kensington or Knightsbridge hotel nearby Harrods, Harvey Nichols, and the Victoria & Albert decorative arts museum can turn your London vacation into a shopping spree. "When a man is tired of London he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford." Dr. Samuel Johnson 4. Take a Scenic Tour. The best way to see all that London offers is to take a tour on one of its double-decker, open-air, sightseeing buses soon after you arrive on vacation. There are two competing companies in London: The Original Tour and The Big Bus Company . Both have stops all over the city. A ticket is good for 24 hours and unlimited hops on and off the bus are permitted in that period. Both companies also offer River Thames cruises, which are included in the ticket price. Tip: Tour buses operate in one direction. If you're using one for transportation, understand that it may take up to three hours to reach an attraction on the other side of London. 4. Hit the London Museums . London features some of the world's finest museums and it would be a shame to vacation here without visiting a few. The biggest and the best are free to enter. Tops on my list are: The Victoria & Albert Museum, National Gallery, and the British Museum. The Imperial War Museum's Cabinet War Rooms (fee) show you the actual London quarters where Winston Churchill led England through World War II. Tip: Museum shops are great places to find gifts and souvenirs. Best buys include "mummy" cases from the British Museum, bone china from Buckingham Palace, and jewelry and art books from the Victoria & Albert Museum. 5. Pay Half Price for London Theatre Tickets. Tickets are available for a wide selection of West End shows on the day of performance at the Leicester Square TKTS ticket booth. While there are a number of competitors, this is the only official seller. Expect to pay exactly half price plus a 2.50 £ fee. Keep in mind that most theatres are dark on Sunday nights. Tip: Buy a copy of Time Out London to see what's going on during your vacation. Its calendar of events is extensive, and its theatre listings can help you make a choice you'll be happy with. 6. Organize Your Vacation in London. If you want to pack a lot of sight-seeing into a few days, plan an itinerary ahead of time. Use a map to locate attractions, and see those in proximity to one another instead of spending time racing all over London. Certainly allow time to stroll London's beautiful parks and gardens and linger over a pint at one of her many pubs on your vacation.
