Discover the most beautiful Village in the Balearics according to National Geographic: Pollença and Puerto Pollença

When we think of Mallorca, it’s hard not to imagine those dreamy landscapes, where mountains and sea blend to create postcard-worthy scenes. However, there is a corner of the island that has managed to capture everyone’s attention, even that of prestigious publications like National Geographic: Pollença, rated as the most beautiful village in the Balearics. With its historical charm and natural beauty, Pollença stands out as the ideal destination to enjoy the true essence of Mallorca.

Founded in Roman times, Pollença has maintained its essence intact throughout the centuries. Walking through its old town, filled with cobbled streets and stone facades, feels like stepping back in time. The Plaça Major, at the heart of the village, becomes a vibrant meeting point, where locals and visitors gather to enjoy local cuisine. The Church of Our Lady of the Angels, dating back to the 13th century, is an architectural gem that elegantly dominates this iconic location.
