La station :
Set right between France and Spain, Catalonia is Spain′s second biggest region after Andalusia.
Many wonder why Catalonia has become one of the first tourist destinations in Spain, and the answer probably lies in the fact it is a region full of history. Moreover, its capital Barcelona is absolutely breathtaking, its inland most charming, and the Costa Brava boasts beautiful fine sand beaches under a pleasant and mild climate.
Catalonuia is also the home to many cultural wonders, from the picturesque Roman churches to the works of some of the best modern artists and architects the world has produced, such as Dali (his museum is in Figueras), Gaudi, Miro, and Picasso. This surprisingly rich culture is Catalonia′s biggest pride, and the local population will be more than happy to share it with visitors ready to learn more about it, and enjoy it.
