6. Culture:

Study in Spain gets you closer to the culture of Spain. You could dress up in the traditional garments and head down to native gatherings, or head down to salsa dance breakouts for special events. If you have native friends, you’ll truly understand what it means to be a Spaniard. Cities like Madrid, Barcelona etc. have an architecture that bears the influences from the Conquistadors to Romans, making it on the rank of the incomparable ones across all of Europe. If it is their food and wine that you crave, the wine-making of the Spaniards is no secret. You can have an immense amount of fun as it is. Spain is also dotted with some of the richer historical elements from the time of colonial rules and the conquistadors and lesser historical times like the inquisitors. You could get a hang of all of them while in Spain.

7. Learning a New Language:

Though you can study in Spain in English, Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world. It is also one of the most influential languages in the world. Spain is obviously the best place to learn the Spanish Language, as it will help you interact with the locals and immerse into the Spanish lifestyle. Also, the language will make you employable, not only in Spanish but in a number of countries where Spanish is widely spoken, precisely 30 more countries other than Spain. The native speakers are mostly in Spain and the Americas (North and South).

8. Football:

This is something that needs no introduction at all. Don’t go after the American culture and call their sports soccer just to show off. If there is something most of the rest of the world, headed by Spain, hates, it is calling Football soccer. With the many leagues that come to play in Madrid, Barcelona, or some of their better and bigger stadiums, you can get a front-row seat to all the best games of the season if you are a football fan. Witness how people from across the world throng to Spain as the games draw closer. If any of the Spanish clubs are your favorite, you also stand a chance to witness them playing since you’d be hanging around longer than those who are not going to study in Spain.

9. Climate:

When you think about the climate in Europe, damp and cloudy weather comes to your mind. However, being one of the most southern countries of a continent helps. The weather in Spain is sunny and pleasant. Spain has close to 300 days of Sun and according to the World Health Organization, the Climate of the country is one of the best on the planet to live in. With 13 Koppen Climates, it is one of the most climatically diverse countries in Europe, and among the top 10 in the world.

10. Resplendent Landscapes:

Spain is known for its numerous beaches, lined with trees so exotic that it appears straight out of a postcard. The temperature is always moderate in the summers and the seasons are always appropriate. So when the sunlight glitters on the blue waters, you know it is one of the best places to relax. If you’re a mountain person, Spain offers you entire ranges of mountains that are ideal for several extreme sports as well as outdoor activities. With the student groups that form and the accessibility of these mountains, these provide one of the best outdoor team-building activities.
