Explore Bunyola

The Alfabia Gardens surround a historic estate at the foot of the Serra d'Alfàbia near Bunyola, on the road from Palma to Sóller. Documented since Moorish times, the estate has a baroque façade of 1760; visitors walk through terraced gardens with a pergola of stone columns and water jets, palm avenues and a 19th-century lake garden.

Es Baluard is Palma's museum of modern and contemporary art, opened in 2004 inside the Renaissance bastion of Sant Pere on the old city walls. A concrete building set into the ramparts holds a collection of more than 700 works by Balearic and international artists, and temporary exhibitions. Visitors can also walk the bastion's terraces above the bay and enter its old cistern.
