About Spain |
| More
than 45,000,000 tourists visit
Spain each year, making it one
of the most visited countries
in the world. Spain has an incredibly
vibrant blend of history, culture
and sun.
Centuries of Arab rule produced
some of the most stunning Moorish
architecture in the world, such
as the Alhambra in Granada and
the Mezquita. Spain's climate
and beaches attract milions
of tourists every year.

| Spanish
is the official language. Other
languages include Catalan, Basque
and Galician, while English
is widely spoken in tourist
areas and generally used for
business.
The climate is good all year
round, but it can get extremely
hot in summer - around and over
30C (86F) in the south. Winters
are cool at around 5C (41F),
with a bit of rain and snow
in the mountains, with temperatures
below 0C.

| La
Manga is the five-star golf
and spa resort favoured by pop
stars and footballers- but the
region has a lot more to offer:
250km of coast, beautiful beaches,
a natural lagoon, a national
park and many historic towns.
Away from La Manga's highlife
pleasures, the region can feel
remote and rural, with wide,
arid plains and rocky mountains. |
