The best photos of Palma de Mallorca aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Bellver Castle will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Patios of Palma for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
The elegant capital of Mallorca, where a soaring Gothic cathedral overlooks a medieval old town of courtyards, Arab baths, and waterfront promenades.

Palma de Mallorca attracts visitors for architecture and food, and Bellver Castle and every landmark doubles as a photography opportunity when you know where to stand and when the light is best. A photography-focused walk pays attention to reflections, leading lines, and street scenes between the landmarks. Hidden photogenic spots like Patios of Palma reward those who wander off the main path.
Many old town patios are only visible through doorways, but some open during the Corpus Christi patio festival in June. The cathedral is best photographed from Parc de la Mar.
April through June and September through October. July and August are hot and crowded.
