スペイン周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The entrance fee is now €2 for the church or €3 for the church and the small museum. The entrance fee is worth it (and is really cheap compared to the cathedral in Palma), as the interior of the parish church is simply beautiful.

Inviting access to the forest hiking trail

It is famous for being the place that, according to tradition, houses the tomb of the Apostle Santiago, making it one of the main pilgrimage destinations in Europe through the Camino de Santiago. The building is a mix of architectural styles including Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque. The Obradoiro façade is particularly impressive and is one of the most recognizable symbols of the cathedral. In addition, the cathedral features the famous Botafumeiro, a huge censer used during certain liturgical celebrations.

The Iglesia de Sant Bartomeu is a baroque masterpiece in the middle of the mountains. The delicately designed but huge façade of the parish church towers over the main square, Plaza de Constitució, with its small shops, restaurants and cafés. The current church was built in the baroque and late neo-Gothic style at the end of the 17th century over a previous church. The only evidence of the first building are the remains of the fortress walls with loopholes at the side entrance to the church, which were built around them to protect against Turkish pirates. Even today, the historic festival of Moros y Cristianos (Moors and Christians, also known as Es Firó de Sóller) is celebrated every May 11th to commemorate the defense against the pirates.

It is a great hiking trail, but it is not easy. Depending on which path you choose between the two great bays, it can be relaxed or strenuous. The more strenuous option via the Talaia de Son Jaumell, in particular the very steep, narrow, rocky and scree-covered descent to Cala Mesquida, is only recommended if you are sure-footed and not afraid of the steep descent. However, you can also go back a little from the tower and then later turn right towards Cala Mesquida.

A completely different world awaits you on the Aleppo Pine Trail. Absolute silence, shade under the trees, forest paths and secluded bays. Definitely worth a hike.

The path through the forest is beautiful and easy to walk. 😀

It is very worth going up to Roque Nublo not only to see the rock formation itself, but also to enjoy the spectacular views it gives you from above. The sunsets are incredible.
