POLLENÇA & AROUND

Pollença
POP 16,190 / ELEV 41M
On a late summer afternoon, when its stone houses glow in the fading light, cicadas
strike up their tentative drone and the burble of chatter floats from cafe terraces lining the
Plaça Major, Pollença is like the Mallorca you always hoped you would discover. Pol-
lença's postcard looks and vaguely bohemian air have drawn artists, writers and luminar-
ies from Winston Churchill to Agatha Christie over the years. Saunter through its back-
streets lined with galleries and boutiques or pull up a ringside chair on the square at sun-
down to watch the world go by and you too will be smitten.
