The Village is full of history and right on the earth of the Mallorca Island, the once capital of the Kingdom of Mallorca Sineu comes up as the perfect example of the rustic and small Mallorca villages. An interesting and ancient agricultural hilltop town boasting over 1000 years of history, with less than 3000 inhabitants and plenty of many ancient buildings. Sineu comprises 47,70 square metres up on hill in the centre of the Island.

Those willing to try the authentic Mallorca dishes will found Sineu to be the perfect place, as it is plenty of "Cellers" (the typhical mallorcan restaurants) serving dishes as the traditional roast suckling pig (most known there as ?lechona") or the lamb thigh (?paletilla de cordero"). A firm favourite is Sa Plaça, on the church square: ask for the "frito de marisco" (deliciuos), made of vegetables and seafood, a variation of the Mallorca typhical "frito".
Sineu is also really interesting for cultural strolls and gives well in place information to visitors so they can do it themselves with no need of a guide.
If you do come to Sineu during the warm season, sitting outside a bar and watch the time go by while you feel its peace and tranquillity is a must. And do not forget to try the "hierbas", the mallorcan liquor!. |
