Short Description

"Spain is Culture" is a digital window to Spain's rich and diverse cultural heritage. A space for the online promotion of the country's tourist and cultural attractions, including digitization of works of art, virtual tours of monuments, a calendar of events and cultural festivals and an extensive archive of biographies of authors and artists that highlight one of Spain's main assets: its Culture.
Spain is Culture gathers and presents on a website the highlights of the Spanish cultural heritage, a long history of cultural creation and the current offer of all kinds of cultural products. The website presents the varied manifestations and the different samples of this rich and complex cultural heritage and contemplates its moments, styles, authorship and locations, trying to bring it closer to the citizens effectively.
Through this website, the visitor will be able to access Spanish Cultural Heritage from three different and complementary points of view: geographical (by Autonomous Communities and localities), temporal (artistic styles) and thematic (looking for the presence and associations of that kind), although other entry and search options are offered, such as type of public or agenda of cultural activities. Another possibility offered is, in addition to the use of the consolidated cultural routes, all of which are available, the autonomous creation of routes by the users of the website.
The contents of the Portal are complemented by a wide and varied range of useful tourist information for all citizens who are travelling to enjoy the different cultural assets: accommodation, transport, restaurants, other parallel offers, etc. The Spain is Culture website aims to offer a comprehensive service to guide Spanish and foreign citizens in the vast and fascinating territory of Spanish Cultural Heritage.
