Palma de Mallorca

Palma, also called „Ciutat de Mallorca“ (City of Mallorca) is the Capital of Mallorca. With its roughly 400.000 inhabitants it accommodates about ¾ of the whole islands population. Known for its beautiful beaches and rich culture Palma attracts over 15 Mio. tourists per year.

There’s a lively cultural scene, also due to the many immigrants from mostly England and Germany. During the summer Palma offers various possibilities to enjoy free concerts and entertainment.

Also does Palma, either in the city centre or right at the beach front, offer an almost uncountable variety of little shops, cafes and restaurants which definitely make living enjoyable and worthwhile.

Safetey

As for “safety” Palm does not differ from any other European capital. But even though there are almost no street crimes, pickpockets like to emerge especially in the summer time. So, when strolling through crowded places always keep an eye on your wallet, watch or other objects of value.
