There are few places in Spain that are not worth visiting at least once, and Mallorca is a place that bears repeated trips. Despite its long history as a sleepy fishing village, it is also a very lively place, where cultures meet and reinvent themselves every evening. There are a number of spectacular attractions here, with historical tours that will take you to Mallorca’s prehistoric past, and up through the staggering number of civilizations that have passed through here. And there are also plenty of art galleries and museums where you can see the products of inspiration by the local artists, along with many international works of visual beauty and imagination. There are many things that can bring travelers to Mallorca. Hotels are certainly among the big draws, as the hospitality industry here has it down to a magnificent art form.
You’ll enjoy waking up to the splendor inside and outside your hotel, and on some mornings it might be hard to decide between the spa treatments inside or the call of the sea outside. But island life here is laid-back, and the days are made for pleasure, so there’s no such thing as the wrong decision. Once you do make it outside, however, you’ll see what the place has to offer, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised. It’s a rather sophisticated place, with pockets of artists and intellectuals where you can enjoy passing the days talking about the world at large. There are also opportunities to escape into fun, at places like Westen Park.
This water park has a Wild West theme, and some Wild West shows that would make Baudrillard very happy indeed. There is a diving show, where people perform amazing feats diving into the water, and the western theme comes to play here, reminding people of when cowboys used to jump into swimming pools. Then there is the wheel of death, to please the kids, an acrobatic spectacle, and finally a simulation of a bar fight in Guadalupe. The European fascination with the West in general is in itself fascinating, and here there are plenty of chances to see it in action, all while enjoying the pleasures of a water park.
