Iberian Peninsula

The Iberian Peninsula is a mountainous region that's most associated with the countries of Spain and Portugal. Its history under Muslim and Christian rule is reflected in landmarks like the Alhambra, an ornate Moorish palace in Granada, Spain, and the Sagrada Família, architect Antoni Gaudí's fantastical church in Barcelona. The capital of Spain's Catalonia region, Barcelona is also famous for imaginative food.
