Mallorca

Inland Mallorca, away from the beaches, is a plain of almond, fig and carob trees divided by dry stone walls. Villages like Porreres and Algaida still have their weekly markets and bakeries that open at six.

The Mallorcan black pig is raised outdoors here, and olive oil biscuits are still baked in wood-fired ovens.
