Hertz in Palma De Mallorca
Palma lies on the Balearic Island Mallorca's South coast, overlooking the bay of Palma. This historic city was first settled in 123 BC and today is home to more than 400,000 residents, making it the largest urban area in the archipelago. Palma has an extensive and stunning old town, full of relics and monuments from its inhabitation from Romans, and the Moors to the present day, the Spanish. Meanwhile, throughout the city, you will find an array of shopping, culture and attractions to see, with the easiest way to explore them by car. Renting a car in Palma will allow you to explore its 80 square miles, from the marina to the new town.
Palma is a city full of charm and culture. Stroll along the lime tree-lined shopping street Passeig des Born to the Es Baluard, formerly a 16th-century fortress, and now home to pieces by Picasso, Miro and Zimmerman. The city's most iconic landmark is La Seu, the vast Gothic cathedral partly designed by Gaudi. Wander the narrow cobbled streets of the former Madina Mayurqa, taking in a relaxation session at Banys Arabs, one of the final reminders of Mallorca's Moorish rule. Explore the trendy district of Santa Catalina, home to a great selection of boutiques, caf??s and bars, while Palma is famous for its fiestas, with the Sant Joan celebration in June particularly explosive. To visit the cultural hotspots outside of the city, rent a car from Palma.
