In the heart of Lloret de Mar, virtually next to the central beach of the city, there is a real cat museum, there are all kinds of objects related to cats on three floors of the building – toys, paintings, porcelain figurines and much more – only about 2,000 copies!
A photo report about our visit to this entertaining museum “Cat’s House” in Lloret de Mar can be found following the link.
As usual, in June 2017 in Playa de Aro, on the territory of a free parking lot (the one where there is a noisy market on Fridays), traditionally takes place the exhibition of American Cars, held by the Catalan American Cars Club. Everything is as usual – cool cars made over the past 50-60 years, the roar of engines, tires are smoking, sausages are frying, loud rock from the speakers, the public in cowboy hats 🙂
A quick photo report about the event this year can be viewed at the link – American cars 2017.
You can see how it looked in 2019 following the link.
These days, the annual festival of flowers and design, Temps de Flors Girona 2017, is held in Girona. This year, for the 62nd time!
It’s a useless exercise to try to tell something about this holiday sparkling with colors, it is better to go directly to viewing photos following the link – Girona Flower Festival 2017. There are many photos, take care of internet traffic!
Vidreres is a relatively small town located on the right, if you take the C-35 highway towards Barcelona, just before the Lloret de Mar exit. Here, right in the fields, every year the fun holiday Fira de Tractoristes de Vidreres takes place. It’s dedicated to agriculture and the most important machines involved in the difficult task of growing harvest – tractors! More than a hundred growling monsters, all kinds of colors and years of manufacture take part in the traditional defile of tractor drivers, some of those machines are older than their drivers!
A short story about how the festival of tractor drivers took place in Vidreres in 2017 with numerous photos can be viewed following the link.
The Cap de Creus Natural Park is located on the easternmost point of the Iberian Peninsula, in a place where the Pyrenees sink into the waters of the Mediterranean, dividing France and Spain. When people talk about this place, the following words most often sound – fantastic, alien landscapes, and the strongest, knocking down wind…
Almost all of this is true, but you can read in more detail about this picturesque place in our blog following the link – Cap de Creus.
If your kids love animals, don’t deny them (and yourself too) the pleasure of visiting the safari zoo in Sigean, about 80 kilometers from the Spanish-French border. And don’t let the distance scare you – believe me, it’s worth of it!
In the first part of the journey (safari park itself), you can observe animals from the window of your car in practically natural environment. There are all kinds of deer, bulls, antelopes, ostriches, giraffes, black Tibetan bears, zebras, lions and rhinos. They all look at you, as on delicious canned meat in a metal can😃 In fact, the animals are not hungry (it seems that way) and are not eager to eat you right now😁. In the second part you can walk through the usual zoo, where you will also find many animals and birds…
To get a complete picture of what awaits you – see our photo report following the link – Safari Zoo, Sigean, France.
Beget (in Catalan pronounced as a Bazhet) – a tiny medieval village (first hit in historical chronicles in 1013) is located in a narrow canyon among forests in such a godforsaken place in the mountains of northern Catalonia that only a rare tourist can get here. However, if you are a real explorer and you want to enjoy a non-mass tourist product, then you should come here! Narrow pedestrian streets (it’s just not possible to pass by car through the village in principle!), old houses, clean mountain air, only 27 permanently registered residents …
The distance to Beget from Playa de Aro is about 108 km, it will take 1 hour 45 minutes by car, and from Barcelona – all 150 kilometers, as much as 2 hours 15 minutes. In order to diversify a long journey you can make a stop in Camprodon – a cozy catalan town to admire the famous Romanesque “devil’s” bridge and take some beautiful photos.
A detailed story and photos can be viewed at the link – Beget.
Camprodon is an ancient city located in the fertile and very picturesque northern part of Catalonia. Even the road to it evokes a feeling of genuine delight – well-groomed horses peacefully nibble the weed on even green meadows, evoking a feeling of peace and harmony with the environment😊.
Among other attractions, the city is famous for its New Bridge (such bridges are usually also called “Romanesque” or “Devil’s”). Also worth noting is St. Peter’s Monastery, whose construction began in 904.
A detailed story about our trip to Camprodon accompanied by photographic cards can be viewed at the link.
The procession of giant dolls is a Catalan tradition, rooted in the deep Middle Ages. Every self-respecting town, even a very small one, usually has a pair of giant dolls who take part in local festivals and sometimes travel to neighboring cities.
This time the procession of dolls took place not just anywhere, but in a Spanish Village in Barcelona, so we could not miss such a spectacle! The procession was attended by several dozen giant dolls and much more living people from the staff of the doll service teams.
The story of the history of this entertaining tradition, as well as photos of how the procession of giants in the Spanish Village in Barcelona looked this year, can be viewed at the link.
