About Mallorca

 

The sea has been the main mean of communication with the island unitl recently. That is why the first inhabitants of Majorca were the Sea Peoples and specifically those from the Marenostrum. The first settlements, dating back to 4000 BC, were at the numerous natural caves of the coast of Mallorca. Subsequently, other groups arrived and settled in the interior of the island’s gigantic Stone constuctions called Talaiots and more tan a thousand are listed. Long before knowing the beaches, visitors to the “Island of Calm” –as was called by writer Santiago Rusiñol- showed their admiration for the huge number of monuments, outstanding buildings and museums, comprising the well-deserved reputation monumental Palma Cathedral, Bellver Castle, Royal Palace, Sa Llotja, Grand Hotel, Museo de Mallorca and noble patios as Ca’n Vivot, Ca’n Oleza and Ca’n Solleric. Monasteries, defense towers, cloisters, churches, town halls and museums make up the geography of the 52 villages in Mallorca.
