4Valldemossa, Mallorca

Mallorca is known for its beaches, but its heart beats in the mountains—and nowhere is that more evident than Valldemossa.

Surrounded by the green peaks of the Tramuntana range, Valldemossa is a village of stone houses, flower-filled balconies, and narrow lanes perfumed with jasmine. The town is famous for its Carthusian Monastery, where composer Frédéric Chopin once stayed, adding a romantic legacy to its storybook charm. With its timeless beauty and mountain backdrop, Valldemossa could easily star in a classic European romance film.
