While Mallorca is known for its pleasant subtropical climate, there are also days when the weather doesn't cooperate \u2013 whether it's due to rain, wind, or grey clouds. In the south, an average of about 400 millimetres of rain falls per year, while in the north it can be up to 1,400 millimetres. However, even in the winter months, it rarely rains on more than six days a month. These six days can be used to explore the alternative sides of Mallorca.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The capital city, Palma, is an ideal destination for rainy days. Palma has a variety of sights to see, with the cathedral and museums being particularly noteworthy. The cathedral \u201cThe Cathedral\u201d<\/a><\/span>, (translated from Catalan, \u201cthe bishop's seat\u201d) is one of the city's landmarks. With its Gothic architecture, it offers a beautiful view of the sea on the shore of the Bay of Palma. Inside the cathedral itself, you can admire works by Antoni Gaud\u00ed in the Catalan Modernisme style (Art Nouveau) and Miquel Barcel\u00f3, who redesigned the chapel of the Blessed Sacrament in the right aisle, as well as the tomb of Clement VIII, who served as the legitimate bishop of Palma.<\/span><\/p>\n Neben der Kathedrale kann man auch das k\u00f6nigliche Schloss besichtigen. Palace of Almudaina<\/a><\/span>\u00a0Discover. Originally, Almudaina was an Arab fortress built in the 10th century during the Moorish rule of Mallorca. After the Christian Reconquista in the 13th century, it was converted into a royal palace and has since served as the official summer residence of the Spanish royal family.<\/span><\/p>\n A museum worth seeing is the Es Baluard Museum<\/a><\/span>\u00a0for contemporary art, featuring works by Spanish and international artists \u2013 including Joan Mir\u00f3, Pablo Picasso, and Eduardo Chillida. In addition to the permanent collection, there are regularly changing exhibitions highlighting the current art scene.
