Some locations you may want to consider visiting are: Palma is the capitol city of Mallorca and home of the “La Seu”, the famous cathedral dominating the skyline of the city. Pictures and information about Palma can be seen here.

The monestary of Santuari de Cura - this monestary is up high on a mountain. From here you have a good obversation point to see the island in all directions and also a chance to take a moment to meditate. The only noise you hear at this point is distant cow bells in the landscape below. Torrent de Pareis - a gorgeous hidden area within mountains. You must first walk through a dark tunnel to reach the area. Once inside you will discover an awesome landscape. Valledemossa - Charming town along the west coast of the island. Cap Formentor - the most northern tip of the island. Gorgeous landscape. To get there you must really travel a narrow snakelike road to reach it. Oncoming busses from the opposite direction will make you realize how narrow the road is. Peguera is in the south western corner of the island of Mallorca. It is a popular destination for tourists during the day because of its many beaches and the gorgeous landscape around the area. At night it is worth strolling the main street through the city and shopping, eating and enjoying the night life at the clubs. .........................................................................  More Pictures:  Antelope Canyons Near Page, Arizona  Bad Segeberg, Germany  Berlin, Germany  Christmas in North Germany  Death Valley National Park in California  Florida  Grand Canyon  Hamburg, Germany  Heligoland (Helgoland), Germany  Holsten Gate in Lübeck, Germany  Horseshoe Bend, Arizona  Kiel Week Sailing Festival in Germany  Las Vegas Hotels and Attractions  London, England  Lübeck, Germany  Mallorca  Mammoth Caves, Kentucky  Meteor Crater near Flagstaff, Arizona  Nashville, Tennessee  New York City  Niagara Falls in New York  Pacific Coast Highway in California  Palma de Mallorca  Rock City in Chattanooga, Tennessee  Route 66 in Arizona  Ruby Falls in Chattanooga, Tennessee  Sand World 2007 in Travemünde, Germany  San Francisco, California  Schleswig-Holstein, Germany  Schwerin, Germany  Sequoia National Forest  Yosemite National Park .........................................................................  More Information:  Majorca  Balareas .........................................................................
