Palma de Mallorca

In Palma de Mallorca there is a beach, just at the side of the cathedral, 100 meters away there is a beach, the name is Can Pere Antoni, of course in the island, there is much better beaches than this one, but this one comes very handy, if you are in a hotel, in the center of the city, and provably will be the only beach where the local people are the majority of the people. The beach at the end has a liveguard and several bars. Also at the beginning of the beach there is a place where you can do jogging or skating so you can runn all the time in front of the sea, betwen the sea and the palm trees, is one of the nicest spots of the city.

At the end of Carrer Zanglada, they are located the bischop´s garden, sometimes are opened and some times are closed, but if they are opened, they are a perfect spot to have a rest, because really there you can hear nothing, you are in one of the most centric locations of the city, but is so silent.

It is a good idea to get lost in the center of Palma, here we will have the chance to see many mansions. This one in the picture is Ca la torre, one of the nicest houses of Palma. At its time when it was build was house of a Marquis, but arround twenty years ago was sold to the architects of Palma, anyway still now you can enter the patio
