I just came back from 2 weeks in Spain. My new favorite place there( and after Rome, my new favorite place anywhere) is Santiago de Compostela. The experience of standing in Praza de Obradoiro at night with the lights illuminating the Cathedral is just beyond words!

Gaudi's Parc Guell in Barcelona - worth a day of wondering around!
