  1. Why Spain is Popular around the world 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. The African enclaves of Ceuta, Melilla, and Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera make Spain the only European country to have a physical border with an African country. Several small islands in the Alboran Sea are also part of Spanish territory. There are certain things that undeniably and quintessentially define a country, and Spain has more than its fair share. Hailing everything from across cultures, from its cooking through to its history, there’s a long list of iconic phenomena that are firmly embedded into the nation’s DNA.

  2. Reasons that makes Spain Popular: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. 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

  3. amounts of wine produced by Spain, sangria is probably the country’s 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 you’ll 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.
