Girona

Spain can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. International (non-Schengen) travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter the Schengen zone. Citizens of Schengen countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay.

Girona, located in Spain's northeastern Catalonia region, has a temperate climate throughout the year, allowing visitors to comfortably explore the wonders of the city.

On the contrary, the perfect period to save up money is during the month of September, when temperatures are still warm enough to delve into the city's history.
