Catalunya experience

El Parc Samà, paradís a la terra, edèn robat als cels.  (Parc Samà is a paradise on  earth and Eden stolen from the heavens.)  - said a catalan writer  Frances Gras i Elies .  Parc Samá is a fabulous place with a long history and soul which is really worth to visit. Parc Samà is situated in Reus in the province of  Tarragona. In the heart of the parc is located the summer residence of  Salvador Samà, Marquis of  Mariana. It was built in 1881. Around the palace, Salvador Samá ordered the construction of the unusual garden. He wanted that the parc reminded him Cuba. This is why there are a lot of palm trees, waterfalls and exotic flowers.  The Marquis was in love not only in Cuban nature but also in European and Asian culture and art. Therefore, don’t be surprised when you see a copy of an ancient Greek sculpture and Chinese vase in the garden. Parc Samá is a true reflection of its owner’s spirit.

In Catalunya there are a lot of places where you can relax and forget about all your problems. In my opinion, the most beautiful one is The Ebro Delta. If you need a rest I recommend you to visit this nature  reserve. It's even more interesting for all of you who love observe nature and, above all, birds. The Ebro Delta is one of the largest  wetland  areas in the western Mediterranean region. Is situated  in the  Province of Tarragona.  A large part of the delta is a  natural park  named  Ebro Delta Natural Park (cat.   Parc Natural del Delta de l'Ebre).  It has 95 breeding species of birds and is also very important for over 300 species of a wide range of transient and overwintering species. The Ebro Delta Park serves as an essential stopover point for large numbers of   migratory   birds and   waterfowl .  When I was there I saw the flock of flamingos for the first time in my life. It was an unforgettable experience. I recommend you to do a short boat trip to be a l

One of the most interesting places in Catalunya which you have to visit is The Dalí Theatre and Museum. I was there one year ago and I still remember every details of the amazing exhibition. This place is not only a museum. It's like a temple for every Dalí's fan.  The museum is situated in the Salvador Dali's home town of Figueras in Catalunya. The idea to construct it was made by the own artist, he said: I want my museum to be a single block, a labyrinth, a great surrealist object. It will be totally theatrical museum. The people who come to see it will leave with the sensation of having had a theatrical dream. When I was there I really feel like if I was in a different word . The building is a work of surrealist art. The roof is decorated with the eggs! Inside the museum is even more interesting. The most famous and evocative installation is The face of Mae West (an American actress and singer) which appears only from a special point of view. If
