Where Should I go: Navarre or Catalonia?

Navarre

The Navarre Region is an autonomous community in Northern Spain. It borders the La Rioja Region of Spain and Nouvelle-Aquitaine in France. It is an area full of history and tradition and its capital city is Pamplona. The Region is very diverse in geography with craggy mountains that roll of into flowing rivers. The beautiful mountain slopes have many cattle pastures and vast forests that include hardwoods, which are important economically. The valleys produce sugar beets, cereals, and vegetables; vineyards are also important in some of the valley areas. Industrialization has increased since the 1950's as a result of hydroelectric energy and entrepreneurship.

Catalonia

Catalonia is a famous autonomous community in Spain. It is situated in the northeastern part of the country and consists of four provinces. The provinces consist of Barcelona, Girona, Lleida and Tarragona. Barcelona is not only the capital of Catalonia, but is also the biggest city in the region. Because Barcelona is such a large city and Catalonia’s long history of international trade, the area is a very popular tourist destination. Another reason for Catalonia’s success is its temperate climate. Two other reasons that make Catalonia different from other areas in Spain are, people speak Catalan, Spanish and Aranese, and its climate has both beaches and mountain ranges.
