1.)Late lunches and dinners
- Spanish lunch and dinner times are later than in many other countries. Lunch is normally eaten at two or three in the afternoon, and dinner around ten at night. Lunch is typically a large meal, with a starter, a main dish and dessert. Dinner is normally very light.
2.)Nightlife
- Nightlifein Spain is as good as you’ve heard. Bars and clubs are open all night, and many people party until six in the morning, sometimes stopping for some churros and hot chocolate at sunrise before finally going to bed.
3.)Surnames
- Everyone has two surnames, which they take from their father (first surname) and their mother (second surname). A woman keeps her surnames when she gets married instead of adopting the surnames of her husband.
4.)Double cheek kissing
- Double cheek kissingIn Spain, people greet each other and say goodbye with a kiss on each cheek. Don’t be mistaken – these aren’t wet, sloppy kisses! In fact, these aren’t really proper kisses at all. People usually touch their right cheeks together and make a kissing sound, then repeat the process on the left side.
5.)Semana Santa
- A religious festival, Semana Santa (Holy Week) is a big deal in Spain. It commemorates the Passion of Christ in the Catholic tradition the week before Easter. Each region has its own distinct traditions, but flamboyant parades fill the streets all over the country with festivities beginning on Palm Sunday and finishing with dramatic processions on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. You’ll see life-sized floats of biblical characters being carried through the streets, people walking with crosses or candles and religious spectacles throughout the week.
