PUBLIC MARKS with tag catalonia

North of Barcelona, there is a lake in the hills. And a town called Banyoles. You need two hours to walk around the lake very lazily, as much as you want to swim in its crystal clear water.

Catalonia stands apart from the rest of Spain. Catalans speak their own language. They are not dancing flamenco preferring sardana – the group dance similar to the Greek sirtaki. The corrida is not popular here. Catalans lose temper when someone calls Catalonia Spain. The Catalan blood is striving for independence and superiority. Such attitude to themselves goes back to the times of the Great Roman Empire.
