Artà is one of the oldest towns on Majorca – with the Bronze Age ruins of Ses Païsses to prove it. Piled up charmingly on a hill, it’s full of arty little cafés and shops, and the views from the hilltop Sanctuary of Sant Salvador are glorious. You can get a snapshot of different stages of Majorcan history in Artà, which has everything from ancient ruins to a sixteenth-century sanctuary. Come on a Tuesday for the market, then browse through the craft shops, linger over lunch, and make the climb to the hilltop sanctuary in the early evening for spellbinding views.
