Where else in the world can you go to a restaurant have a couple of tapas then go off to a cozy room to take a siesta, I’ll tell you where, of course in Spain. Although the Spanish government has tried to abolish the siesta on several occasions, the Spanish are not letting go of this long earned tradition any time soon.

Well, it seems many hotel and restaurant owners have teamed up to offer special siesta packages which they have named “Iberian yoga”. Hotels such as Las Casas del Rey de Baeza in Seville offer exclusive deals so you can enjoy a great meal then relax for a couple of hours afterward then go on your marry way, no questions asked.

I love this country. Everyday I find more and more things that just make me say “Viva España”.
