Spain is a wonderful place to live if you want to immerse yourself in culture, and have lots of sunshine too! Art is an important part of Spain’s heritage and it would be impossible not to notice the impact it has had worldwide.

Artists such as Gaudi and Dali are world famous, and their work can be seen at some of Spain’s many museums and art galleries.

Unsurprisingly, Spain’s capital, Madrid, is home to the majority of museums, with over eight to choose from, including the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo (Museum of contemporary art).

However, Spain does not just celebrate its home-grown artists, but art from all over the world. Visit the Guggenheim museum in Bilbao and see work from Spanish and International artists. The building of the museum itself is a work of art and is recognised as “single moment in the architectural culture”, because when it was unveiled, critics, the public, and academics alike were all united about its grandeur.

It was hailed as one of the greatest buildings built in the style of deconstructivism when it opened in 1997. It is definitely a worthwhile trip.
