| While in Port d�Andratx we took the bus one day to Palma. We visited two of the main historic sites that dominated Palma�s waterfront: the Gothic cathedral, La Seu, and the Royal Palace of La Almudaina. Inside the cathedral we had our first exposure to the architecture and art work of Gaudi. Especially intriguing was Gaudi�s wrought-iron canopy above the altar. The architecture of the palace included a mixture from the period of the Moors, including Arab baths, to the early Spanish Mallorcan royal families of the 14th and 15th centuries. |
