For those of you considering where to visit this Spring, allow me to present a bit of a hidden but famous gem situated in the Mediterranean Sea. The speck of a village of Valldemossa was built up around the 14th century, and became famous for its natural splendor via the influence of Austrian Archduke Ludwig Salvator. The place has endeared virtually everyone who has ever visited, be they famous or not. This quaint place along the shores of the ancient sea must have been what world traveler, geologists and academian Edward Forbes was describing when he said:
All that concerns the Mediterranean is of the deepest interest to civilized man, for the history of its progress is the history of the development of the world.
