Overall Spain is an immersive and beautiful country filled with rich culture and gorgeous nature. Out of everything throughout the country the most jaw dropping thing in my opinion is the architecture. This is what I feel really makes the country and the feel of the community how it is today. Many of the classic buildings with the gothic style can be traced back to the 12th century. The beauty of the ancient style is captivating and hardly even seems real, the designers and architects are truly one of a kind and their work will be cherished forever.
