There’s a lot to see and do in this ancient town, including many museums and churches. One of Pollensa’s most famous features is the Roman bridge over the Sant Jordi River. It’s a pretty spot to stop and appreciate the ingenuity of Roman’s skills while you enjoy ice cream. Another structure to marvel at is the 365 Calvari steps.
It’s well worth the climb up the hill to reach the small church at the top, as you’re rewarded with breathtaking views over the town and beyond. More centrally, there’s the 16th/17th-century Convent of Santo Domingo de Pollensa to take a stroll around, as well as the fascinating Dionis Benassar Museum, which houses many of the local painter’s works.
The town centre itself has a lovely square called Plaça Major, which is perfect for people watching and enjoying some traditional cuisine for lunch.
