What our students said about Palma de Mallorca
Very nice city, clean and safe. Good to explore on foot at all times. The "Ballermann" crowd is obviously not in the city, but rather on the outskirts. The gastronomy offers a paradise for vegans, from simple to very upscale cuisine, everything is there!
Germany
Of course, there is a lot of tourism, especially in the city centre. If you leave these well-trodden paths, there is much to discover. You just have to have courage.

Great historic centre, beautiful, clean, idyllic, well-maintained, safe and convenient with plenty of culture and many nice shops, terraces and Spanish restaurants.

A charming city (even in sizzling summer temperatures) with a lot of history, individual architecture from many eras and styles. A little short of cultural events.
