“In Spain, the dead are more alive than the dead of any other country in the world.”
Spain is one of the most underrated countries in Europe. I find that many Americans, especially those who live in the western and southwestern US, have preconceptions of Spain as a sort of European version of Mexico. Wipe that out of your head. There are no shanty towns, big hats, mariachi bands, or spicy foods.
What you’ll find instead is a thoroughly European country, with history, traditions and architecture influenced by the three main cultures that have inhabited the peninsula over the last three millennia: Roman, Jewish and Moorish.
With over 4,000 miles of coastline you expect lots of beaches, but what surprises most first time visitors are the mountains. Spain has one of the highest elevations of any country on the continent, second only to Switzerland.
