<description><![CDATA[Spain Travel Information


Spain is full of magical points of interest. There's Madrid in
the center, Barcelona to the northeast and Seville to the
south--just to name a few. Before you pack your bags and head
off to Spain, here's some great travel information. Knowing the
climate and when to go can make all the difference in the world.

The Climate

There's nothing worse than taking a dream vacation and getting
blindsided by poor weather. It would be foolish to just rush off
to Spain without knowing what the conditions will be like once
you arrive. 

Did you know that Spain's summers typically reach 90-100ºF? If
you don't like the warm to hot weather, stay away from Spain
during the months of June, July and August. The main points of
interest may get a bit unbearable for you. However, air
conditioning is commonplace in the hotels.

May and October, which are just before and after the summer,
make great times to visit Spain. The Falls are beautiful. 

Key Travel Tip

Here's a great Spain travel tip for you. If you hate
overcrowding and love the beaches, don't visit Spain in July or
August. During these two months, the Mediterranean Sea is
perfect for enjoyment. Herds of tourists and locals flock to the
beaches to enjoy it. It's a seasonal event.

Since many locals hit the beaches, you might find shops closed
or operating minimally. The Mediterranean Sea isn't great for
swimming in many months out of the year, so many look forward to
these couple of months each year.

Planning

Spain offers many festivals throughout the year. A popular one
is the Fiesta De San Fermin. You probably know one of its
events--the running of the bulls. Pamplona is a special place
each July.

Do some research and plan your trip around a festival that you
would really love to see.

Bullfighting in Madrid

Bullfighting is as ubiquitous in Madrid as cricket is in the Indian sub-continent, and bullfighters are given the same celebrity status as sport stars. Your trip to Madrid would not be complete, if you are not intending to witness a spine-tingling bullfight. 

Plaza Monumental de Toros de las Ventas, often referred to as the Mecca to bullfighting, draws some of the finest matadors in Spain. It is believed that a matador who hasn’t proven his bullfighting skills in Las Ventas is not considered to be a top-fight artist.

Bullfighting season in Madrid is between March and October. During this period, bullfights are organized every Sunday at 7 PM at Las Ventas, but during the Feria de San Isidro and the Feria de Otoo, there are bullfights everyday. Talent scouts mingle with the spectators on these two occasions, and matadors who distinguish themselves in the ring are signed up for Majorca, Málaga, and other places.

Bullfighting is all about testing the strength of matador and bull. The chief matadors also called toreros, are the ones who actually kill the bull, and they are dressed in gold, while their subordinates wear either a silver or black dress. A typical corrida (bullfight) is divided into 6 fifteen minutes sections called faenas, which are further segregated into three sections. 

In the first section, the matador and his assistants use large magenta and yellow capes to test the bull’s (toro) strength. Picadors on horsebacks pierce the bull in the back of the neck to weaken it as well as compel it to drop it’s head to the level of the matador’s capes. 

In the second section, the banderilleros stab the banderillas into the back of the oncoming bull. The banderillas are long, brightly colored barbed sticks that remain in the bull’s back for some time and aggravate it.

In the final section, the matador faces the bull alone and displays his bravery and skills through a series of elegant manoeuvres. His ultimate aim is to kill the bull and to achieve his goal he exchanges the long straight sword he has been using to position his cape for a smaller one with a curved end.

To execute the kill, the matador tries to mimic the angle formed by the head of a charging bull with his cape. As the bull reiterates, it’s vital area between the shoulder blades is exposed and the matador simply inserts his sword to reach the bull’s heart. A skilled matador, executes the bull in one go, but generally several attempts are required to subdue the bull.

Tickets for the bullfight can be purchased from Las Ventas itself. Alternatively, you can contact one of Madrid's best ticket agents, Localidades Galicia for bullfight tickets. The prices of tickets vary depending upon the day and where you plan to sit. 

Sombra are the best seats, as they are available in shades. The cheapest seats are filas, but they are always in the sun and provide the worst view. Barreras are the front row seats and Delanteras are third row seats. Delanteras are available in both the alta (high) and the baja (low) sections. The bullring isn't too big but, if you plan to see the action without paying a lot for your seats, binoculars are probably a good idea.
