Spain's Paradores Routes
Initiated in 1920's by the Spanish government, the paradores (or paradors) program has successfully converted buildings of historical interest to first class hotels in select locations. They are your chance to experience Spain intimately through its rich history, local cultural life, and its extraordinarily flavored cuisine. Take your pick! Castle, convent, monastery, it could be yours for a few nights while you get to explore the surroundings. An added bonus when booking a Paradores Route (listed below): you won't rub elbows with too many tourists. |
