| Hi there! I thoroughly agree on the Alhambra. Also why not take in the area known as the Altiplano de Granada which is an hour's drive east from Granada city? The adventurous part about it is that you could stay in a cave house or cave hotel - highly recommended and a bit different! I live in a cave house in Baza and love it. |

As for culture it also varies incredibly. Andalucia (the south) is great for music and traditional bull runs. Madrid is perfect for theatres and different shows. Barcelona is THE place to go out, clubs, bars, music, the best nights ever. Oh, and Spain is a country to to go during the summer. You can make the best out of it | |

| One thing, when planning a tight trip, you need to check schedules carefully. Many things are closed on Mondays, so if you want to pack in the activities, you need to make sure you aren't planning Monday activities that are closed all day, and you need to know what is open during siesta, and what closes down...We were in Córdoba, and had planned to go to the Mezquita first, then the Alcázar de los Reyes, then, around 2:00, we would be hitting the Sinágoga. But when we got there, we found out that the Synagogue closes during siesta, and the Mezquita was open all day, so we switched things around. If we hadn't checked, we would have missed out on the Synagogue, and that would have been a shame. |

| I would recommend Mallorca.... It has a very cosmopolitan city in Palma, there are loads of great tapas bars, restaurants, clubs etc plus the town and cathedral too. Mallorca has loads of lovely beaches and you can drive into some of the mountainous areas and see a totally different side to the place. You could also get the plane or ferry over to one of the other Balearic Islands or even Barcelona. |

| If your going on holiday you will probably be going where all tourists go... Nearly all of the Spaniards will speak English, because alot of British people go there. Oh and DONT DRINK THE WATER buy bottled! Have a good time! |
