In addition to vivid memories that will inevitably remain with any guest of hot and vibrant Spain, any tourist wants to bring with him a memorable souvenir or a high-quality gizmo from this country. They usually bring anything they want: from gastronomic delights to branded items.
Authentic delicacies
Shopping in Inspani is a rather expensive pleasure, and therefore, guests of a sunny country often bring gastronomic delights and souvenirs as gifts for friends and family members. For example, Spanish wines are very popular: there are several wine-growing regions in the country, and experts in wine production appreciate the composition of the soil and climatic conditions in local vineyards. Most often, Jerez, an Andalusian fortified wine made from white grapes, is brought from Spain.
To take out jamon or serrano, it is more convenient to buy this delicacy packaged in a vacuum. This will help preserve the freshness and flavor of your jerky pork on the long drive home.
Among the authentic delicacies, jamon is most appreciated - this is a dry-cured pork leg, which is an indispensable attribute of any grocery store in any town or city in Spain. A more budgetary variety of jamon - serrano, differs slightly in the quality of pork.
Spain is also famous for its cheeses, among which the most favorite among tourists is "Manchego", a semi-hard cheese made from sheep's milk. Also one of the most exotic local delicacies is candied violets, which can only be bought in Madrid. And in Mallorca, you can find delicious ensaimada buns stuffed with cream, chocolate, apricots, nuts, etc.
Souvenirs
It is impossible to go on a guided tour of Spain without taking with you at least a couple of authentic souvenirs. The most budgetary options for memorable trinkets are magnets, postcards, key rings, small figurines of literary characters. All this is sold in every souvenir shop.
Spain is famous throughout the world for high-quality leather goods, so many tourists are happy to buy wallets and purses, belts and handbags made of genuine leather on the Iberian Peninsula.
More expensive and amusing souvenirs - wooden boxes from craftsmen from Granada, jewelry made of artificial pearls and colored glass, which is produced in Mallorca, as well as ceramics from Catalonia and Valencia. The province of Galicia is famous for its lace craftsmen, and in Cadiz, beautiful blankets and colorful carpets are made. A separate topic is Spanish weapons of excellent quality, decorated with gold and silver. This is one of the most expensive and personalized gifts you can buy in Spain.
