Mallorca is looking for a starring role in the cinema industry with plans being announced to build a giant film studio in Marratxi.

Mallorca has been left singing the winter blues! On this satellite photograph, above, areas where there is heavy snow are marked in blue and there is alot of blue!

Snow always arouses a lot of interest among Mallorcans, as it is not a common occurrence on the island, and even less so at sea level. However, on occasions it has done so, giving rise to historic snowfalls that have gone down in history, such as those that took place in 1956 and 2012.

Wine from Mallorca has a growing reputation for quality – the best wines winning medals at international competitions.

It landed in the sea without causing any damage.

The island’s culture, its traditions, its language and its cuisine all bear witness to the comings and goings of numerous civilisations, occupiers, artists, writers and musicians
