As you may or may not know, the Spanish nightlife differs greatly from that in other countries around Europe, events start later in the day, people take their time to <strong>enjoy their food and company<\/strong>. The social scene is a lot more important. So even if you live on the island or are a visitor, take your time to enjoy the little things\u2026 \u2018When in Rome\u2019 and all that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">La Lonja<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>La Lonja is a popular area, filled with <strong>cafes<\/strong>, <strong>bars<\/strong> and <strong>restaurants<\/strong>.

For a totally over the top experience you can head next door to the mesmerising Abaco cocktail bar. Built in a 16th century palace Abaco transports you to another world. Full of aged furniture, marble statues and fresh fruit and flower arrangements. <strong>The highlight is the flower petal rain on Fridays at midnight.<\/strong> All of this paired with <strong>classical music<\/strong> is a must see for visitors and residents alike. Further along the <strong>La Lonja<\/strong> district, which takes its name from the <strong>15th century Gothic Maritime Stock Exchange<\/strong> in the centre of the neighbourhood, you can find another Jazz club incorporated on the seventh floor of the <strong>Hotel Saratoga&nbsp;<\/strong>(Passeig de Mallorca, 6).
