Landmarks
Declared a Historic-Artistic Monument, the Cathedral of Mallorca is the most emblematic artistic heritage of the Balearic Islands. "La Seu", as it is popularly known, is one of the most admired Gothic temples in the world and, without doubt, is a must on any trip to Mallorca.
At certain times of the year, inside the "Seu" you can enjoy a spectacular light phenomenon. Specifically, it occurs twice a year (on February 2nd and November 11th). On those days, the sunlight passes through the main rose window and its reflection is projected on the wall in front, so that, for a short period of time, it is reflected one on the other, forming a double rose window: one of glass and one of light.

A railway from the beginning of the 20th century that uses period machines active since 1912 and makes a beautiful journey that literally crosses our Serra de Tramuntana (World Heritage by UNESCO). The excursion can be completed with the first and last electric tram in Mallorca to reach Port de Sóller.
The route is expensive, so we recommend taking it one way to visit Sóller and the Port de Sóller, for the return trip it is ideal to take a bus to visit Deià and then another to visit Valldemossa.

Ses Fonts Ufanes are a group of natural springs that spring up with great intensity from the subsoil after intense rains in autumn or winter. This natural phenomenon takes place when the aquifer under Puig Tomir and its surroundings absorbs too much water and makes its way to the surface, which happens very rarely every year. If we want to see them we must be attentive to the news after intense rains in the island.
They are located in the Gabelli Petit public estate in a pleasant rural setting in the municipality of Campanet. If you are coming from Palma, take exit 37 of the motorway to Sa Pobla/St.Miquel/Coves. At the roundabout take the third exit towards Camí de na Pontons, taking the Ermita de Sant Miquel as a reference. You can park your car near the chapel.

Sa Calobra is an impressive set of two beaches sheltered between steep rocky cliffs, and divided by the Torrent de Pareis (a river gorge) on the northwest coast of the island.
It is quite difficult to reach Sa Calobra.
I recommend using one of the ferries that leave from Port de Soller.
You can also get there by car or bus along an extremely winding road, not at all suitable for those who tend to get seasick, but from which you can enjoy spectacular views.
