Mid-Morning
Beginning at about 10am on any day but Monday, this walk around Pollença should take three to four hours.
Start on the southern side of town, with a visit to the Museu Municipal de Pollença and the beautiful building that houses it – the convent, church and cloister of Sant Domingo, now entirely given over to civic cultural purposes. (It is closed on Mondays.)
Walk north a couple of blocks and pop into Antik I Art (see Antik I Art, Pollença), a wonderful antiques shop. From here, continue up to the Plaça Mayor and admire the Modernista architecture of the Hotel Juma and the marvellous rose window tracery of the Nostra Senyora dels Àngels parish church (see Nostra Senyora dels Àngels, Pollença).
Early Afternoon
Now walk up the left side of the church until you get to Aquamarine (see Aquamarine, Pollença) with its unusual handcrafted jewellery, and then stop off at the Café del Calvari (see Café del Calvari, Pollença) for refreshment before striding up the famous cypress-lined Calvari steps.
Finally, head down Les Creus and Gruat streets to the picturesque Pont Romà, a bridge thought by some to be from ancient Roman times, but probably dating from the Middle Ages.
After your tour, have lunch at either the interesting La Tetera (see La Tetera, Pollença) or the famous La Fonda (see La Fonda, Pollença).
