Spain like England is known for colonising large parts of the globe and giving its language to it especially south America. Also its known for letting us Brits buy up its entire Meditereanean coastline and turn it into sleazy bars......Yahooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Spain is famous for its tapas, and Madrid boasts countless tapas bars. What are tapas and where are the places recommended for sampling them in Spain's capital city? |

Anytime I think of Spain, I sadly just think of the Boozy Brits boozing it up like there's no tomorrow! Shame, really, when you think of all the culture and heritage Spain has to offer. |

Bull Fighting-Bullfighting or tauromachy (from Greek ταυρομαχία - tauromachia, "bull-fight"), is a traditional spectacle of Spain, Portugal, some cities in southern France, and several Latin American countries, in which one or more live bulls are ritually killed as a public spectacle. A nonlethal variant stemming from Port fluence is practised on the Tanzanian island of Pemba[1].
The tradition, as it is practiced today, involves professional toreros (toureiros in Portuguese; also referred to as toreadors in English), who execute various formal moves with the intent, during various phases of the fight, of distracting, angering, or causing injury to the bull itself. Such maneuvers are performed at close range, and can result in injury or even death of the performer. The bullfight usually concludes with the death of the bull by a well-placed sword thrust as the finale. In Portugal the finale consists of a tradition called the pega, where men (forcados) try to grab and hold the bull by its horns when it runs at them. Forcados are dressed in a traditional costume of damask or velvet, with long knit hats as worn by the campinos (bull headers) from Ribatejo.
Bullfighting generates heated controversy in many areas of the world, including Mexico, Ecuador, Spain, and Portugal. Supporters of bullfighting argue that it is a culturally important tradition, while animal rights groups argue that it is a blood sport because of the suffering of the bull and horses during the bullfight.
There are many historic fighting venues in the Iberian Peninsula and Latin America. The largest venue of its kind is the Plaza de toros México located in the heart of Mexico City.
Paella-
Paella (IPA: [pa'eʎa]) is an internationally well known dish of white rice, meat, seafood, beans and vegetables (depending on the recipe) originating in the Spanish Autonomous Community of Valencia near lake Albufera, a lagoon in eastern Spain.
The two most widely known types of paella are Valencian paella (Spanish: paella valenciana) and seafood paella (Spanish: paella de marisco). Valencian paella consists of white rice, green vegetables, meat, snails, beans and seasoning. Seafood paella replaces meat and snails with seafood and omits beans and green vegetables. The varieties of rice used are usually Calasparra or Bomba. Other key ingredients include saffron, and olive oil.
This dish has gained considerable popularity throughout most of the Spanish-speaking world, including the Hispanic regions of the United States. It also enjoys moderate popularity throughout Western Europe.

France is not exactly "known" for bagUettes (learn to spell, please)
Nor is England "Known" for rain...
If you're going to take that route...bullfighting.
Have you ever picked up a book, or done a search? Guess not, if you had, then you would possibly have a slightly more rounded view of the world.
Here...go to the Spanish Tourism website, and you'll find out some true things. |
