A Day’s Drive Through Es Pla
-
Morning
Begin in the north, at Sa Pobla , where you should be sure to visit the cemetery and Museu de la Jugeta . Proceed south to Muro for a look at the handsome Sant Joan Baptista church and the Museu Etnològic .
Drive through pretty Santa Margalida, then Maria de la Salut, and on to medieval Sineu, at the geographic centre of the island, where you can stroll and have a drink at Es Cadafal café.
By now, it should be about lunchtime, so continue on to Petra to have a wonderfully elegant meal at Sa Plaça and to check out the hometown of Fray Junípero Serra.
Afternoon
After lunch, make your way on through Sant Joan and then to appealing Montuïri, with its signature windmills. Next, cut down to Porreres and take the road from there to Llucmajor. Be sure to stop off along the way for a walk around the quaintly picturesque grounds of the Finca Son Sama.
The last leg of the journey is to head back north to Algaida, being sure to pop into Raïms for a look at its timeless charm.
Finally, just to the west of Algaida, take a prolonged tour of the Gordiola Glassworks, with its superb museum and shop.
