The best places in Spain to enjoy the view
Beautiful blue skies, stretches of golden sand and gorgeous nature that leaves you in awe; Spain is awesome. But where is the best place to have a sangria and enjoy these spectacular views? Here are our top 5 views in Spain that you should not miss.
#1 Montserrat, near Barcelona
Monteserrat is a mountain range located on the outskirts of Barcelona. It has a famous abbey, Santa Maria de Montserrat, and is one of the best day trips you can do from Barcelona. When it’s sunny and hot in the city, the mountains can be misty, spooky, and very atmospheric. However, the view is amazing! Expect some of the best mountain views in Catalunya.
#2 Granada, Andalusia
If you haven’t been to Granada yet, you should put it on your list. The city has intricate medieval architecture which, combined with the surrounding mountains, makes for an amazing sight. The Alhambra Palace is the jewel in Granada’s crown, but be aware that it is very busy with tourists in the summer.
#3 Teresitas Beach, Tenerife
The beach, Playa de las Teresitas, is not one of the most popular tourist beaches on the island of Tenerife, which makes it even better! This beach has golden sand, unlike some of the beaches in Tenerife that have black volcanic sand. Swim with the minnows in the artificial reef, lie back and enjoy the view of the stunning island.
#4Valencia
Natural beauty not your thing? How about some modern architecture? The City of Arts and Sciences is one of the 12 Treasures of Spain, and it is certainly impressive. Don’t miss L’Hemisfèric, which turns into an open-air nightclub perfect for dancing the night away. Think cool palm trees, lounge chairs, and DJs.
#5 Barcelona
There are many things to admire in the city of Barcelona, but what better than to do it from the port cable car? You can enjoy not only the view of the city, but also the beach with the Aeri del Port Shuttle. The cable car goes above the water, so see if you can spot the jellyfish!
If cable cars are your thing and you’re heading to Barcelona, you’re in luck! There is also the Montjuïc Cable Car that takes you to the Montjuïc Castle, a former military fortress.
