  • Why Spain is Popular around the world

2
  • Spain officially the Kingdom of Spain is a
    country in Southwestern Europe with some pockets
    of Spanish territory across the Strait of
    Gibraltar and the Atlantic Ocean. Its continental
    European territory is situated on the Iberian
    Peninsula. Its territory also includes two
    archipelagoes the Canary Islands off the coast
    of Africa, and the Balearic Islands in the
    Mediterranean Sea. There are certain things that
    undeniably and quintessentially define a country,
    and Spain has more than its fair share.

Reasons that makes Spain Popular
  • Flamenco
  • Flamenco, in its strictest sense, is an art form
    based on the various folkloric music traditions
    of southern Spain in the autonomous community of
    Andalusia and Murcia. In a wider sense, the term
    is used to refer to a variety of Spanish musical
    styles. While the style has its origins in the
    Romani gypsy music of Eastern Europe, the sound
    of flamenco is uniquely Spanish and more
    specifically unique to Andalucia, Extremadura,
    and Murcia. Flamenco is made up of six parts
    singing, guitar, dance, vocals, hand-clapping,
    and finger snapping. It is celebrated and
    practiced all over the world bizarrely there are
    even more flamenco academies in Japan than there
    are in Spain.

  • Paella
  •  
  • Paella is one of the best-known dishes in the
    Spanish cuisine. For this reason, it may be seen
    internationally as Spain's national dish, but
    Spaniards almost unanimously consider it to be a
    dish from the Valencian region those who live
    there, in turn, regard paella as one of their
    identifying symbols. It is a popular dish to have
    at large family gatherings in Spain, and the
    original Valencian version is with meat and
    vegetables. In coastal areas they replaced meat
    with seafood. The mixta version of both meat and
    seafood is a hybrid version and a big no-no for
    traditionalists and makes Spain Popular to visit.

  • Sangria
  • Sangria is an alcoholic beverage from Spain. A
    punch, the sangria traditionally consists of red
    wine and chopped fruit, often with other
    ingredients or spirits. Sangria may probably be
    the most popular drink from the Spanish cuisine.
    It is commonly served in bars, restaurants,
    chiringuitos, and festivities throughout Spain.
    Aside from the huge amounts of wine produced by
    Spain, sangria is probably the countrys most
    famous drink. The name is considered to come from
    the word for blood, sangre, due to the deep red
    colour of the drink. There have been many
    variations on the original recipe, but youll
    find it is based on red wine, fruit juices, soda
    water, and fruit pieces. If you are in the south
    of Spain and see a drink called Zurra, it is
    sangria, only with peach or nectarine juice used
    instead of orange.
