Culture Spain
Numerous individuals from various origins and different eras have influenced the culture on the Iberian peninsula. Above all, the Moorish foreign rule left vestiges of its culture throughout all of Spanish architecture and design. This is especially visible in buildings such as the Andalusian palace complex "Alhambra". Additionally, Spain is a very religious country and the Roman Catholic religion is still deeply anchored in the country's traditions. In addition to this, flamenco is Spain's most important musical legacy, an elementary part of the culture. Southern Spain is known as the cradle of flamenco. The Spanish bull fight, often difficult for foreigners to comprehend, is an expression of grace, bravery and beauty. An incomparable and unique journey through history can be experienced on the famous Road to Santiago, from the Pyrenees through northern Spain to Santiago de Compostela.
