Palma is the capital of Mallorca, the largest Balearic island in the Mediterranean. The Saracens brought it wealth from the eighth century on for four centuries. The Almudaina Castle is the only survivor of this era. Palma still offers remarkable examples of religious and civilian architecture as witnesses to its great heyday.
The beautiful, lively and large port of the city is divided into several parts, on the one hand there is a fishing port, a marina and the ferry port, as well as a military base. You will soon be drawn to the city, which is less touristy in the old town than is its reputation.
