I am about to move to Spain. Does anyone know anything special or interesting that I should know before I go?

Driving north from Granada to Madrid, we passed through La Mancha, the sun-baked land in the heart of Spain. This is Don Quixote country, where Cervantes' hero lanced at windmills, thinking they were giants. As we neared the town of Consuegra, we spotted a row of windmills on the horizon and suddenly realized that Don Quixote might not have been so deluded after all: From a distance, they did indeed look like giants issuing a challenge.
Spain is loaded with such moments -- when the ideal of what you fantasize the country to be suddenly materializes in front of you. Almost every town and village has its own fiesta, which it's easy to stumble upon and join unannounced. A short walk through many a Spanish city can lead you past a medieval Arab fortress, a bar where tapas and wine are consumed with gusto, or through a park where a guitarist is practicing. Young lovers embrace in the ancient streets, and flamenco stars dance with a fury both rehearsed and passionate. Spain can be wonderfully theatrical and down-to-earth at the same time.

You DO realise that Spain is a country, Paris and London are cities and Africa is a continent?

Technically, Spain is between France and Portugal.

Im from spain, depends of where r u moving at, madrid, sevilla, barcelona, yes its in the middle of that triengle, maroco, paris and london, though its a beatuiful country to see it itself. In madrid there r great museums like Reina Sofia, Tyssen Bornemisa, and El Prado, In Barcelona La Sagrada Familia its huge, though i reccomend you to study a bit of history to understand the place and the ppl, starting with the invasion of the mors during 7 centuries, and then the civil war and franco, there is too much to tell in such a small space. Good luck i recomend you to eat and try dishes like alubias, paella, chorizo, jabugo, jamon serrano, mmmm everything is great.
