Nestled on the northeastern side of Catalonia, in the Girona province, Banyoles is a stunning Spanish city and a top tourist destination. A few kilometers from the city, set in “Pla de l'Estany”, is the largest freshwater lake in the state, carrying the same name — Lake Banyoles. During the summer season, water sports enthusiasts flock to the lake. Besides the expansive and scenic natural wonders, Banyoles charms its visitors with historic landmarks and cultural attractions. History buffs must definitely visit Regional Archaeological Museum of Banyoles, the 15th-century La Canonja house, and La Muralla De Banyoles (Wall of Banyoles). Pilgrims also have a field day visiting different places of worship in the city, including Santa Maria dels Turers church and Sant Esteve monastery.
