Banyoles is a little town in Catalonia, Spain. It's got a population of about 18.000, and in summer there's a lot of tourism. There's a very beautiful lake. There's a legend about the Banyoles lake dragon.

I like Banyoles because it's a beautiful place with lots of vegetation and it's a very friendly and nice town. The tourists come in summer because they can swim in the lake and take very beautiful photos of the vegetation. There's a restaurant with one michelin star called “Ca l'arpa”. My favourite place is the swimming club of Banyoles, because you can go swimming, go rowing, go kayaking...

Banyoles is about 120 kilometres from Barcelona. The only public transport here are the TEISA buses and if you want to go by plane you have to go to Barcelona or Girona airport.
