Trace the history of the Iberian Peninsula.
Portugal played a key role during the Age of Exploration, and in Lisbon you can see the spot where sailors set off on their daring adventures. In Seville, the cathedral and Alcázar show the city’s multi-layered past, while Madrid’s historic Plaza Mayor has been the site of bullfights, royal weddings, and public executions.-
