Where Should I go: Andalusia or Liguria?
Andalusia
The Andalusia Region of Spain is located in the south of Spain. The territory is divided into eight provinces: Almeria, Cadiz, Cordoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaen, Malaga and the capital city of the region, Seville. Andalusia is in the south of the Iberian Peninsula and is the only European region with coastlines on both the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean. Traditionally, the main economic contribution of the area is from agriculture, but in recent years the service industry, specifically tourism, retail, and transportation, have become at least as important and possibly even more important to the economy.
Liguria
The northwestern coast of Italy plunges into the sea as rugged mountains mix with blue water. Amongst this scenic landscape, small towns full of pastel colored houses cling to the cliffs above small harbors full of fishing boats and beachcombers. The capital is Genoa (or Genova), a city steeped in history with winding alleyways and world-class seafood. However, most visitors flock to nearby Portofino, one of the ritzier and more expensive, but extremely beautiful, Italian coastal cities. Here one can find large yachts parked along the shore next to rows of colorful buildings climbing the hills above the town.
