The team from Madrid Low Cost was present to enjoy the cultural exposure that the different regions of the world share in order to get a few tips for future travel plans in Spain.
Normally you will find stands for the more than 165 countries/regions exhibiting, with a huge concentration of the Spanish offer for all of its regions.
For a normal visitor you get the chance of participating in contests to win trips and freebies.
Next we centered on another of the main attractions is to enjoy the gastronomical offer of the different countries.
In our case we enjoyed a couple of wine tastings, for example this one northwest Spain region of Galicia.
Fooling around…
India is one of the biggest exhibitors, actually an official partner of the fair. Kerala stand called my attention for the memories I keep from my days traveling in the backwaters in the southern regions of India.
I just realized I took a few more videos on Instagram than actually pictures for my blog. For more information on The International Tourism Fair in Spain (Fitur) please visit: http://www.ifema.es/
