Palma de Mallorca

Palma de Mallorca straddles the shore of the Bay of Palma in the Balearic Islands, and its sheltered Mediterranean setting has long tied the city to seaborne trade and island life. La Seu, Palma’s Gothic cathedral, rises beside the Parc de la Mar and forms the defining monument of the old waterfront; work on the cathedral began after the Christian conquest of Mallorca in 1229. Immediately nearby, the Royal Palace of La Almudaina preserves a former Islamic alcázar later adapted by the Mallorcan kings. Inland streets lead through the historic centre, while the Serra de Tramuntana runs along Mallorca’s northwestern coast.
