Old Europe’s romantic nation, Spain, is already beautiful, but the people living there make it a more beautiful country for travelers to visit. The colonial power of this country which has faded with time still whispers its true glory to the tourists or travelers from underneath the Castilian arches and follows through the jungle paths of the Galician countryside. Whether you like the bustling city of Barcelona, the black lava and white sand beaches of Gran Canaria, to bulls taking over the streets of Pamplona, you will have fallen in love with Spain by the time you pack your bags to leave the country. If you’re looking for some Vitamin D while in Spain, then make yourself home at Gran Canaria, one of the most popular places in Canary Islands. Known for having spring temperature all year around, one could visit this beautiful island exploring natural landscapes and serene beaches and also go back to history visiting archaeological sites and museums.
