Spain has seen a massive increase in visitors from the United States over the last few years -- between 1997 and 1999 alone, figures rose by 30%. There are many reasons why travelers are drawn to this colorful and unpredictable country -- the Moorish treasures of Andalucia, the eccentric architecture of Gaudi, the castles and monasteries of Castille, or simply the lazy attractions of golden Mediterranean beaches. This new edition of the Cadogan Guide to Spain explores the distinctive culture of each region and has full listings of the best places to eat, drink, and stay on whatever budget. It is revised to include the very latest things to see and do, from touring the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to finding Flamenco bars in Madrid that only the locals know about.
