Wow that is very cool Shae! I didn't know that Spain had so many different attractions. If I could do one of thoses attractions I would pick to go to a delicious restaurant because, I like to try new foods. The other thing that i learned is that 57,4 million people visit Spain each year. That is a lot of people. Hope to read your blog next week.
ReplyDeleteThat is really cool Shae. Spain has a lot of attractions for such a small county. Personally, I don't think any of Spain's attractions is as cool as the Great Wall of China or the Terracotta Warriors but I would love to visit Cuenca, the medieval city because the medieval times are very interesting. I cannot wait for your next post.
ReplyDeleteThat's very interesting, Shae! I had no idea that so many people visited Spain a year. I knew that there were lots of tourists but I didn't know that only tourist attraction could attract 12,000,000 a year! Maybe one day we can go to Spain ourselves and visit theses attractions! England's tourist attractions are different than Spain's but also similar. England's main attractions are mostly buildings, like Spain, but England also has the London Eye which is a HUGE farris-wheel. I look forward to learning more about England in your future posts.
