Palma de Mallorca (Majorca), the capital of the Balearic Islands, is the largest city in Mallorca and the Balearic Islands of Ibiza, Menorca. The cities origins are based back in the Bronze Age, and were a major city of the Romans with same name as Palma.
In the early middle ages it was conquered by Arabs, who named it Madina Mayurqa. In 1229 it was conquered by King Jaime I, ruler of Valencia and Aragon, and became an important trade city. Attacks by Turkish pirates in the 17th century led to a century long decline, finishing when Charles III opened trading with the Indies.
From the 1950’s Palma became an important tourist destination, and has continued to flourish, due to its History, the city has lots of museums and fine ancient buildings, with the Gothic cathedral one of the most know landmarks and sites.
Palma has become today a place of class and opulence, with shopping a must, Local transport is an ideal and a very economic way of getting around the city and of course the Island.
