Things to do in Spain
Whoop it up at Ibiza
The moment I hear Spain, I recall the song, “We’re going to Ibiza” by Vengaboys. Surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea on one end and Atlantic Ocean on the other, Spain offers a collection of some of the finest beaches. Ibiza is an island located in the Mediterranean Sea. With its emerald green waters, beautiful people, and frenzied party scenes, the island allures people for a break from the daily routine.
Eat Tapas
Try various types of tapas at the bars. You may get a tapas with every drink you order. Bandrellias, tortilla, and patatas bravas are some of the varieties of tapas. Tetuán, Carabanchel, Móstoles, La Latina, Alcalá de Henares, and Fuenlabrada are the best venues to munch tapas.

Have Some Festival Fun!
Spain is famous for two of its festivals, named as, La Tomatina and the Encierro, running of the bulls. The Tomatina festival is held every year on the last Wednesday of August. All the people play by throwing squeezed tomatoes at each other. They smear each other’s body with tomatoes. Let your body get nourishment from tomatoes. You won’t require going to a salon to get a massage; at least on that day! The Encierro is held from July 7 to 14. If you dare to run with the bulls, you may try it out.
