Esporles

This week, we will keep visiting the western parts of Majorca. Today’s stop is represented by a small village tucked up in the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, named Esporles. It succeeded in maintaining a lot of its original charm. When I say that, I’m referring at typical stone faced houses, winding streets, that somehow englobe the quintessence of old times. Hence, a modern touch can be observed in ...

Majorca’s Best Places – a short mapping

After yesterday’s article, I’ve come to realize that a top 3 of Majorca’s best places couldn’t be enough. This is why I have decided today to add some things up. Sóller and Port de Sóller. This would be our today’s first stop. We are talking about an amazing place, that became wealthy thanks to the valley’s abundant citrus groves.
