About this title

From the Inside Flap

Few countries have such a clear signature as Spain. The mere sight of its name conjures up sunlight and beaches, flamenco dancers and bullfights, castles and cathedrals, and a proud people with a long, tempestuous history. It is not surprising that Spain is Europe's most visited country. But there is much more to Spain than the obvious attractions. It is a country of great pysical and humn diversity, a treasure trove of architecture and art, and a culture that enthusiastically experiments with the new without forsaking its traditions of hospitality, friendliness, and self-criticism....

From the Back Cover

It has been said that Spain is all of Europe in a single country. But it is also, within itself, many countries, some already familiar to the traveler, others hardly known. The Traveler's Spain Companion 2nd Edition provides a foretaste of Spain's leading attractions as well as an eclectic menu highlighting the wide range of activities awaiting visitors. It then takes you gently but authoritatively by the hand and shows you how to get the best out of this beautiful and dramatic, yet manageable, land.
