Publication Date: 18 Mar 2011 | Series: Lonely Planet Country Guides

Passionate, sophisticated and devoted to living the good life, Spain is at once a stereotype come to life and a country more diverse than you ever imagined...


Inside this book:

- New 'If You Like' and 'Regions at a Glance' sections to steer you towards your preferred activities

- Special colour sections on Gaudi, Picos de Europe, Architecture and many Spanish cities

- New 3D illustrations of the major tourist attractions

- Our 'tell it like it is' attitude cuts through all the hype to show you the very best of this loveable country

3.0 out of 5 stars Bit Disappointed 1 Aug 2011
By B. Day
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this book as I am heading off to some of the lesser known places in Spain outside of Barcelona. Valencia which is the third largest city in Spain has only a few pages dedicated to it so not much use. I was hoping for something a bit more comprehensive

4.0 out of 5 stars Good value 9 April 2011
By David Stewart
Format:Paperback
The new edition is fully updated and much better than older editions of the guide. The presentation is no-nonsense having lots of information with just a few colour plates. Opening times of attractions are well-detailed and every attempt is made to circumvent the necessarily list-like style with relevant issues in side boxes to break up the pages.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive guide, but poor Zaragoza section 26 May 2012
By raskolnikow
Format:Paperback
Lonely Planet has seperate guides for Madrid and Barcelona, so it comes as no suprise that these sections are pretty comprehensive and detailed. That said, other reasonably big cities such as Zaragoza have been given not enough space: there is even no mention of the Zaragoza 2008 expo site - an eerie place nowadays, with its closed off Pavilion Bridge, Torre de Agua, etc. but nonetheless worthwile seeing - so I suspect the authors haven't visited the city for a couple of years now.

So either Lonely Planet should expand these sections - and maybe restrict itself to lists of sleeping/eating options in stead of reviews or make them available on their website only - or publish more regional guides (they only offer Andalucia and Mallorca now).
