Eat Tapas<\/span><\/h3>\n

Tapas, those bite-size portions washed down with wine, beer, or sherry, are reason enough to go to Spain! Tapas bars, called tascas, are a quintessential Spanish experience. Originally tapas were cured ham or chorizo (spicy sausage). Today they are likely to be anything — gambas (deep-fried shrimp); anchovies marinated in vinegar, stuffed peppers; a cool, spicy gazpacho or hake salad.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Listen to Flamenco<\/span><\/h3>\n

It’s best heard and watched in an old tavern, in a neighborhood like Barrio de Triana in Seville. Get caught up in the staccato foot stomping, castanet rattling, hand clapping, and sultry guitar chords. Some say its origins lie deep in Asia, but the Spanish Gypsy has given the art an original style dramatizing inner conflict and pain. Performed by a great artist, flamenco can tear your heart out with its soulful, throaty singing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Admire the Masterpieces at the Prado<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of the world’s premier art museums, the Prado is home to some 4,000 masterpieces, many of them acquired by Spanish kings. The wealth of Spanish art is staggering — everything from Goya’s Naked Maja to the celebrated Las Meninas (The Maids of Honor) by Vel\u00e1zquez (our favorite). Masterpiece after masterpiece unfolds before your eyes, including works by Hieronymus Bosch, Goya, Caravaggio, Fra Angelico, and Botticelli.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Run with the Bulls in Pamplona<\/span><\/h3>\n

We mean, just watch the bulls, rather than run with them. The Fiesta de San Ferm\u00edn in July is the most dangerous ritual in Spain, made even more so by copious amounts of wine consumed by participants and observers. Broadcast live on TV throughout Spain and the rest of Europe, the festival features herds of furious bulls that charge down medieval streets, at times trampling and goring some of the hundreds of people who run beside them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tapas bars, called tascas<\/em>, are a quintessential Spanish experience. Originally tapas were cured ham or chorizo<\/em> (spicy sausage). Today they are likely to be anything -- gambas<\/em> (deep-fried shrimp); anchovies marinated in vinegar; stuffed peppers; a cool, spicy gazpacho; or hake salad.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nListen to Flamenco:<\/strong> It's best heard and watched in an old tavern, in a neighborhood like Barrio de Triana in Seville. Get caught up in the staccato foot stomping, castanet rattling, hand clapping, and sultry guitar chords. Some say its origins lie deep in Asia, but the Spanish Gypsy has given the art an original style dramatizing inner conflict and pain. Performed by a great artist, flamenco can tear your heart out with its soulful, throaty singing.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nAdmire the Masterpieces at the Prado:<\/strong> One of the world's premier art museums, the Prado is home to some 4,000 masterpieces, many of them acquired by Spanish kings. The wealth of Spanish art is staggering -- everything from Goya's Naked Maja<\/em> to the celebrated Las Meninas (The Maids of Honor)<\/em> by Vel\u00e1zquez (our favorite). Masterpiece after masterpiece unfolds before your eyes, including works by Hieronymus Bosch, Goya, Caravaggio, Fra Angelico, and Botticelli.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nWander the Streets of Barcelona's Gothic Quarter:<\/strong> the Ciutat Vella (Old City) of Barcelona is one of the most evocative neighborhoods in Spain. Its richly textured streets, with their gurgling fountains, vintage stores, and ancient fortifications, inspired such artists as Pablo Picasso and Joan Mir\u00f3 (who was born in this neighborhood).\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nRun with the Bulls in Pamplona:<\/strong> we mean, just watch the bulls, rather than run with them. The Fiesta de San Ferm\u00edn in July is the most dangerous ritual in Spain, made even more so by copious amounts of wine consumed by participants and observers. Broadcast live on TV throughout Spain and the rest of Europe, the festival features herds of furious bulls that charge down medieval streets, at times trampling and goring some of the hundreds of people who run beside them.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nVilla Real<\/strong>****Once you have gone through the doors of Hotel Villa Real, you will find yourself in a warm, comfortable and discreet atmosphere which will make this small luxury hotel your ideal refuge from a day of active entertainment, or from your business operations in Madrid.\r\nThe hotel offers to the guests one of the most extraordinary views from the terrace to the \"Buen Retiro\" Park and the Botanic Gardens. Designed by the prestigious architect Chueca Goitia and acquired in\u00a0 1996 by the Catalunyan Derby Hotels Group, the hotel interiors have a collection of\u00a0 ancient Roman art collection.\r\nThe Villa Real Hotel is also surrounded by one of the most complete range of cultural sites and museums such as the Prado Museum, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the Reina Sof\u00eda Cultural Center, the Real Theater, the Espa\u00f1ol Theater, the Zarzuela Theater, etc. and the financial, political and commercial centers of the capital city, where people can feel like any other citizen, but of course enjoying the privileges that the Villa Real offers.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nHotel Ritz*****<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Ritz is the Ritz as we all know. You expect to find top quality and service and they have it. This is a traditional emblematic hotel next to the Prado Museum, behind the Madrid\u2019s Park El Retiro (a jogger\u2019s dream place). So it is difficult to praise the Ritz more than it has been decade after decade. They have a very courteous staff, not exactly stuffed up as you think you would find in a hotel of this category, but rather friendly and providing a home feeling every time you come through the door. It is worthwhile mentioning that all the different Ritz hotels in the world are independent, it is not a chain, and just a catchy name that has been identified with deluxe quality over the years and this Ritz is undoubtedly in keeping with that tradition. The rooms of the Ritz are full of savoir from the over hundred years of history but with every up to date convenience that\u2019s come out in hotel industry.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nHotel Alfonso XIII*****<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Hotel Alfonso XIII was built for the 1929 Sevilla Expo. It has always been considered to be one of the most contemporary gems of Andalusia. The building is neo-mudejar, inspired by Arab architecture, which was so much in vogue at the beginning of the century. It was inaugurated by King Alfonso XIII on occasion of Her Royal Highness Infant Isabel\u2019s wedding with Count Juan Zamoyski. The prestige of this hotel has never decayed. Practically every personality visiting Sevilla stays here, from Kings to famous singers. The location of Hotel Alfonso XIII is without doubt also privileged, in a quiet district only two blocks from the famous Sevilla Cathedral, the third largest in the world, and not more than 10 minutes walking distance from the heart of town where you find those wonderful pedestrian streets covered with canvasses during summer, thus providing an under the shade effect of being in one of the world\u2019s largest malls. The most characteristic part of Hotel Alfonso XIII is its inner patio surrounded by a gallery which becomes the center of the Hotel\u2019s life, like a worldly cloister with lounges providing intimacy or the ideal setting for a chat next to the bar. The arches in the patio are inlaid with a freeze of polychrome tiles featuring historical characters in the purest Renaissance style.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nParador de Granada****<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThis most famous parador in Spain -- and the hardest to get into -- is within the grounds of the Alhambra. It's rich with mud\u00e9jar- and Arab-inspired architectural touches, including splashing fountains, wraparound loggias, gardens laden with wisteria, and aromatic herbs.\r\n\r\nThe decor is tasteful, and the rich Andalusian ambience evokes a lot of history. From the terrace you have views of the Generalife gardens and the Sacromonte caves. The guest rooms are roomy and comfortable and have bathrooms with tub\/shower combos. Ask for a room in the older section, which is furnished with antiques; rooms in the more modern wing are less inspired.\r\n\r\nThe parador itself is within a former convent founded by the Catholic monarchs after they conquered the city in 1492. Before that, the building was part of the Muslim complex that included the Alhambra and a mosque built in the mid-1300s by Caliph Yusuf I. The bodies of Ferdinand and Isabella were placed here until their tombs could be readied in the cathedral.\r\n\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nHotel Palace Barcelona*****<\/strong>\r\n\r\nIn October 1919, the Hotel Palace (Ritz) officially obtained its 5 stars GL (luxury hotel).
