Culture Spain
Numerous peoples of diverse ancestry from different epochs have significantly moulded the culture on the Iberian Peninsula. Above all, the Moorish foreign rule left its mark on Spanish architecture and design, which, for example, can still be admired in the Andalusian palace “Alhambra”. Moreover, Spain is a very religious country and the Roman Catholic religion still anchored deeply in the country’s traditions. Southern Spain is considered to be the cradle of flamenco, the greatest Spanish musical inheritance and an elementary part of the culture. An expression of grace, bravery, and beauty is Spanish bull-fighting, which is often difficult for strangers to comprehend. The Way of St James, which goes from the Pyrenees through northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela, offers an incomparable and unique holiday through the history.
