Hay lugares que disfrutar para todos los que se acercan a esta tierra. En esta publicación se ofrece un abanico de posibilidades únicas para conocer más y mejor Andalucía. La oferta turística andaluza es tan amplia y diversificada que no hay en el mundo una similar. Aunar en un mismo territorio historia, tradiciones, ocio, naturaleza y playas con la fuerza que tiene la oferta turística de Andalucía es algo difícil de encontrar en otras partes del mundo. Nuestras propuestas van dirigidas a quienes ven en el turismo algo más que descanso, sol y playa. La rica y diversa historia andaluza se exterioriza en el pueblo andaluz y sus tradiciones, manifestadas en fiestas lúdicas o religiosas, pero siempre sor- prendentes para quienes se sumergen en ellas. El pueblo anda- luz sabe trabajar y bien, pero también sabe divertirse y recuperar las tradiciones que han dado fortaleza a una manera de ser y sen- tir. La relación de fiestas de interés turístico, escapadas, citas gastronómicas y rutas que ofrecemos, en total 128, es un abani- co lleno de luz y color sumamente atractivo. Señalar en la agen- da personal alguna de estas fiestas y tradiciones es saber disfru- tar de la vida. Y en una tierra donde las culturas dejaron tantas y tan profundas EDITA: huellas, disfrutar de mesa y mantel es de obligado cumplimiento.

There are places waiting to be enjoyed by anyone who comes to this part of the world and this publication presents an array of unique options for better exploring and learning about Andalusia, whose tourism offer is so extensive and varied as to be unlike anywhere else on earth. It is hard to find in other parts of this world a place that combines in a single area history, traditions, leisure activities, nature and beaches to the degree found in Andalusia. Our suggestions are directed toward those visitors who are looking for something more in tourism than sun, sand and relaxation. Andalusia's rich and diverse history reveals itself in the Andalusian people and their traditions as manifested in fiestas that, whether of a religious or entertainment nature, are always fascinating to those who become part of it. The people of Andalusia know how to work and they work hard, but they also know how to enjoy themselves and to preserve tra- ditions that have strengthened their way of life. The list of 128 festivals of tourist interest, suggested getaways, gastronomic events and tourist routes that we offer is an extremely attractive assortment filled with light and colour.
