Map of Central Spain
Regions of Spain
Madrid
Lively, energetic, and vibrant, you won`t find any other place in the world like Madrid. Capital of Spain since 1562, Madrid's museums host, among others, works by Dali, Miro, and Picasso`s Guernica. Madrid boasts art galleries, large open lush gardens, streets lined with Spain`s best tapas bars and a city atmosphere that never dwindles no matter the time of day!
Barcelona
Barcelona, Spain`s second city, is on the cutting edge of fashion, architecture, food, style, and good times. Its most powerful monuments are the intricately carved edifices of the Gothic Quarter; the Catalan Art Nouveau modernism that inspired Antoni Gaudí's Basilica de la Sagrada Familia; and the seminal surrealist works of Pablo Picasso and Joan Miro.
Valencia
Valencia, Spain`s third-largest city and capital of the Valencian Community, can boast a very rich history, one that has spanned two full millennia. Twice the former capital of Spain, Valencia`s rich history is evident in the Ciutat Vella (Old Town), one of the largest old towns in Europe, which houses buildings that date back to the Moorish invasion and Roman-era plazas.
Andalucia
Andalucia, comprising much of southern Spain, is a land of culture, history, fiestas, and excellent food, featuring outstanding monuments and gorgeous natural landscapes. It is home to Granada and the Alhambra Palace; Cordoba and the Mezquita; Seville with its Cathedral and Alcázar; and popular festivals such as the Carnival in Cadiz and the April Fair in Seville.
Costa Blanca
The Costa Blanca is over 125 miles of Mediterranean coastline in Alicante province, Spain. It features a coastline with calm waters and fine white sand beaches with mountains that loom over fruit and palm groves as well as the Mediterranean Sea. Many of the beaches of the Costa Blanca are very famous, such as Levante and Poniente beaches in Benidorm.
Costa Brava
Stretching north of Barcelona to the French border, the Costa Brava is about sun, beaches, coves surrounded by nature, refreshing dips in crystal-clear water, strolls along coastal footpaths, and charming fishing villages. Gloriously wild in parts and tastefully manicured in others, the Costa has some of the finest sandy beaches in Europe.
Green Coast
The Green Coast, or Green Spain, is the beautifully lush area in the extreme north of Spain, consisting of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, and the northern part of the Basque Country, all of which receive more rain than the rest of the country. Verdant and forested mountains contrast with the nearby coastline and its blue-green waters.
Balearic Islands
The Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera) offer warm weather year-round. Collectively they are the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, if not the world. Mallorca, with its fine white-sand beaches, and Ibiza, with 130 miles of coastline, are the most popular islands, known for arguably the world`s best nightlife.
Canary Islands
Situated just off the southwestern coast of Morocco, the Canary Islands have been popular vacation destinations for decades. The Canary Islands offer breathtaking landscapes, beautiful beaches, lots of shopping and entertainment opportunities, and of course over 600 years of Spanish architectural influence and history.
Experiences & Adventures

The historic cities near Madrid, Spain`s vibrant capital, offer some of the world’s most historic and unique sights. Many of Spain`s oldest universities, cathedrals, monasteries, and historic monuments are located here. Medieval architecture, Roman monuments, palaces, and unique hanging houses are just a train or a car ride away from Madrid in central Spain.

The Spanish Empire dates from 1492, and by 1516, the Kingdoms of Castile, Aragon, and others were united under the Spanish crown. This is in addition to other storied kingdoms which existed pre-1516 in Spain`s current borders, such as Galicia, Leon, and the Almohad Caliphate. The cities in these regions are filled with thousands of years of history.

With one of the most extensive systems of roads and highways in the world, Spain is very easy to traverse by car. Major highways (autopistas and autovías) connect all of Spain`s 45 mainland provinces with one another. Let us help you find your ideal Spanish road trip that`s tailored to your desires.
More to Explore
Mérida
Mérida, UNESCO World Heritage City and the capital of Spain`s Extremadura region, was once also capital of the Roman province of Lusitania (Emerita Augusta, founded 25 BCE). Mérida is well-known today as being the home of the most impressive and extensive Roman ruins in Spain. The ruins lie speckled around town, often appearing in the most unlikely corners.
Burgos
Situated on the Pilgrim`s Road to Santiago de Compostela, Burgos still preserves important vestiges of its medieval splendor. Burgos, the capital of the kingdom of Castile and Leon for five centuries, boasts the centerpiece Burgos Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Beneath the spires of the cathedral lies the tomb of Burgos` favorite and most famous son, El Cid.
Vitoria-Gasteiz
The capital of the Basque Country reveals a medieval quarter where it is possible to find the most charming little corners, gardens and tree-lined boulevards, where medieval streets intermingle with Renaissance palaces and Neoclassical churches. Vitoria enjoys an intense cultural life, as evidenced year after year by its most famous event, the Jazz Festival.

Spain and Beyond
CENTRAL SPAIN

Central Spain contains some of the last great unexplored areas, as well as some of its most glorious architectural and historic treasures. It's a paradise for driving enthusiasts. Mile upon mile of empty road through spectacular scenery and forgotten villages, leads you from one to another of the great cities. This Spanish heartland is a mountainous and often wild region, where wild-life flourishes and the mid-summer sun bakes the land.
