Malaga is the city that produced Picasso, the most influential Spanish artist of modern art. With a collection of over 200 works by the artist, a visit to the Picasso Museum is certainly worth it, even just to admire the fabulous sixteenth-century building that houses it. To get an idea of Picasso's childhood, go and see the Casa Natal, where the painter grew up and started painting with his father. The majestic Catedral de Santa Maria de la Sede of Seville is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, measuring 126 m long and 83 m wide. The Giralda tower that stands next to it is the historic minaret of the Almohad mosque on which the church was built. Inside there are veritable artistic treasures and the tomb of Christopher Columbus. The Alhambra in Granada is one of the most extraordinary places in Europe: a network of richly adorned palaces and lush gardens first created in the eleventh century, whose name derives from al - Hamra (the red one) because of the pink colour of the boundary walls.

The Mezquita of Cordoba is undoubtedly one of the greatest examples of the overlap between Islamic and Catholic culture: the mosque was built on a church and, after the Catholic Reconquista of Spain, a cathedral was built in the central part. One of the many unforgettable places in Barcelona is Park Güell, built by Antoni Gaudì on the El Carmel hill in the Grácia district, making use of architectural elements of distinctive shapes and colours and the decorative technique of trecandis, which combines fragments of ceramic and coloured glass pieces. The heart of Madrid is in Plaza Mayor, which was built by Philip II on the ancient Plaza de Arrabal, home of the most important local market in the city. It is a place that has hosted folk festivals, bullfights, coronations and religious events over the years.
