Spring Festival in Palma
In and around United Kingdom
I spent 11 nights in Palma, Mallora to attend Corpus a Palma, a music, culture and religious festival which is held in conjunction with Corpus Christi, a significant Spanish Catholic holy feast.
I flew there from London and spent all 11 days in Palma. There are many interesting towns and sights on the island, but I on this visit I concentrated on the festival.
