Answer

What is Palma's Old Town like on a cloudy or rainy day?

When the weather turns cloudy in Palma, many people head from the seafront into the old town, especially around Carrer Sant Miquel and Plaça Major. The streets can feel busier and more crowded than on a sunny day, with terraces, cafés and shops suddenly filling up. For visitors, it can be a pleasant time to explore the historic center, but it is worth expecting more foot traffic and some congestion.
