Discover Mallorca's Best-Kept Secret: The Heart of the Island

On the magnificent island of Mallorca, there lies a hidden treasure that only a few explore. The interior of Mallorca, a gem to discover, immerses you in the authentic island way of life. It is here where you can experience a unique and authentic journey that will connect you with the essence of this Balearic land.

 

Embark on a Journey Through Time

Let yourself be carried away by the charming corners of the inland villages, where the morning greetings of 'bon dia' ('good morning') and 'va bé' ('all right') and the sound of the bells chiming on the dot become music to your ears. Walk at your own pace along ancient paths and stone walls, depending on the area, amidst cisterns or old 'possessions' (Mallorcan architecture comprising the characteristic agrarian social structure from the 13th to the 20th century) that will transport you to other eras, immersing you in Mallorca's living history.

 

Indulge in the Local Gastronomic Experience

Our weekly markets await you with a selection of fresh, seasonal local products that will awaken your senses. Discover the authentic flavors of our land, prepared with passion and tradition. The typical 'pa amb oli' (bread drizzled with tomato, oil, and salt and topped with your choice of cold cuts) is so well-known that it would be very unusual not to find it in any village bar. 'Tumbet,' 'Sopes,' 'Arros Brut,' 'Frit,' 'Panades,' 'Pica-Pica,' 'Gall,' 'Porcella,'... are some dishes you must not miss depending on the season of your visit.

Each bite is a tribute to Mallorca's culinary richness.

 

Art, Crafts, and Music to Fill Your Heart

Craft fairs will envelop you in a magical atmosphere, where the music of 'xeremies' and 'flaviols' (small wooden instruments played with the left hand, as the right hand plays the 'tamborí') serves as the backdrop for works created with hands and heart.

Mallorcan folklore states that, for wood to be good and long-lasting, the tree from which these instruments originate must be cut during the old moon of February (if it is deciduous) or the new moon of February (if it is evergreen).

Here, wisdom and patience come together to give life to unique pieces that reflect Mallorca's authenticity.
