Not all Spain has a Mediterranean climate.
- bertil 3y agoNo, of course – Galicia famously doesn’t, but they still have tall buildings and courtyards to shelter from the unspeakable wind.
- Maken 3y agoOutside of the areas in the Cantabrian Coast and the Pyrenees, Spain is basically a dessert.
- mbroncano 3y agoThat’s awfully inaccurate
- anthk 3y agoCastilles are not a dessert. Even heard of Picos de Europa? Mountains from Soria? Sierra Nevada?
- shiroiuma 3y agoWhile those don't sound like desserts, they don't sound like entrees or appetizers either.
- anthk 3y agoNo, Spain it's basically an elevated plateau (> 600m!) surrounded by mountain sierras everywhere. Thus, you can have bipolar climates in the Castilles, (both scorching Summers and ice-freezing Winters), more rain than the UK in the North (really), sun and touristy places at the Mediterranean zones, and microclimates all over the place.
