Of spezial interest are the state-run Tourist Paradors ( Paradores de Turismo ), most of which are located in tastefully restored historic-artistic buildings, rich in architecture and art, or in settings of great natural beauty.
Scattered across Spain, there are over eighty Paradors, where the visitor will have the chance of sampling the regional cuisine and marvelling at just how well these buildings fir in with their surroundings.
