PALMA CITY

Palma, capital of the Spanish island of Mallorca, is a tourist town located in the west of the Mediterranean Sea. The immense cathedral of Santa María, a Gothic monument that began to be built in the 13th century, dominates the horizon of the bay of Palma. Next to this is the Almudaina, an Arab-style fortress converted into a royal residence. To the west of the city, Bellver Castle, located on top of a hill, is a medieval fortress with a distinctive circular shape.
