To get there, you can either go through the tunnel, which will take you less time, or you can choose to drive the mountain roads. To explain a bit, in the Northwest of Mallorca, there’s a mountain area called Sierra de Tramuntana (On the UNESCO World Heritage list since 2011). When I was on my way from Palma de Mallorca to Sóller I had to choose between the tunnel and the mountains.For everyone who doesn’t have the time to figure this out along the way, here are the best highlights of the island: Of course, you can Google that shit too, it’s only so much more fun to explore it yourself. I liked to cross the island in my rental car and stop wherever I want to. Photo credits: Ask Ideas The Best Sights of The Island Opened from 10.00 until 14.00 | From April to October until 18.30. The collection is located in the Palau March palace, with sculptures on its patio. Palau March is the home of magnificent work of Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore and Salvador Dalí, amongst others.Get lost in the streets and make your discoveries here. The Old City of Palma is a maze of small streets, with great architecture and hints of Arabic influences.My favourites are the oysters and sparkling wine, different cheeses, cold cuts and typical Mallorquin food. This market hall has fresh products and offers freshly made dishes. Mercat de l’Olivar is on the list of stops every time I go to Palma.From the cathedral, you’ll have a gorgeous view of the Parc de la Mar and the Mediterranean. Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma, or La Seu, is Palma’s Gothic Roman Cathedral has been built in 1229, but only finished in 1601.Here are my favourites in Palma de Mallorca: This place is perfect for a combination of sun and city trip. Palma has beautiful sights and is located near the beach. You can visit the island by ferry from mainland Spain or you can fly to Palma Airport (PMI). Palma de Mallorca is the capital and largest city of the island. It is safe to say, this is one of the most beautiful places in Europe! Living on the island Mallorca, part of the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea, got me crossing the island every day when I was off from work. Another spontaneous decision led me to a job on the Spanish island Mallorca. Thinking of white-sanded beaches? Palm trees and clear blue water? This time I’m not describing Bora Bora or the Maldives. It never crossed my mind, but paradise is closer to home than I thought.
