Climate - Weather
Spain is extremely hot
during mid-summer, in July and August. The rest of
the year the climate is generally temperate in the
north, but warm in the south. The best time to visit
is during spring or autumn, except for the Atlantic
coast, which has heavy rains in October and
November. August is the busiest month, while May and
October are the best times for both ideal weather
and fewer crowds. Madrid and the high central area
can get very cold during winter.
Welcome to Spain
Widely known for Flamenco music and dance, bull-fights, fantastic
beaches and lots of sunshine, Spain has to offer much more than that. It
is - and has been for thousands of years - one of the cultural centers
of Europe. It has beautiful cities and towns, offering really old
monuments as well as futuristic architecture. Its various regions are
all different one to each other, geographically, climatically and even
in personality. It is a fascinating country to know and to know more
about it.
"Spain is different!", Spaniards use to say. They don't specify compared
to what: to the rest of Europe, to the rest of the world, or even to
itself ? We don't know it either, but we do our best to supply you with
loads of information so you can find the answer to this question and to
many more by yourself.
Fiestas und Folklore
Best known among Spain's folkloristical traditions are certainly
Flamenco and bullfights. Bullfights you will find indeed throughout the
country, the most popular event perhaps being the "Running of Bulls"
during the Sanfermines in Pamplona. But bullfights are part and parcel
of any Fiesta.
Flamenco, on the other hand, is the musical tradition in the country's
south, in particular in Andalusia. That is where you have to move to see
and listen first rate dancing and guitar playing. In April takes place
Feria de Abril, in Seville, an entire week of singing and dancing and
trying that great Sherry wine, those delicious tasty snacks called "Tapas"
and more Sherry wine ... and if you like this sort of things you REALLY
should not miss that event.
If you can arrange it (and find a hotel room) better arrive to Seville
already two weeks before Feria, and see this city's other outstanding
event: Semana Santa, Easter week, with its world-famous processions.
Another most popular event of religious origin is El Rocio, a
traditional pilgimship to the village El Rocio in the province of Huelva,
in May. This pilgrimship anyhow is not too solemn and serious, Flamenco
and wine being indispensable components. Follow the thousands who each
year travel there and have yourself a ball.
Another outstanding Fiesta are "Las Fallas de San José" in Valencia, in
March, when all the city becomes the scenery of an enormous party with
lots of good mood and excellent fireworks.
A
wild week you can spend also in San Sebastian during February, when La
Tamburrada takes place.
Madrid has its Fiesta, "San Isidro", in May. If you like bullfights,
don't miss it.
Carnival is popular in all the country, the best is in Santa Cruz de
Tenerife, but if you are at the peninsula, Cadiz and Sitges are the
places to go.
