Poble Espanyol

Fodor's Review:

The Spanish Village was created for the International Exposition of 1929. A sort of artificial Spain-in-a-bottle, with reproductions of Spain's architectural styles, it takes you from the walls of Ávila to the wine cellars of Jerez de la Frontera with shops, houses, and crafts workshops en route. The liveliest time to come is at night, and a reservation at one of the half-dozen restaurants gets you in free, as does the purchase of a ticket for the two discos or the Tablao del Carmen flamenco club.
