I have been to Spain several times and this is great to hear. Like many countries with historical sites and aging infrastructure, accessibility is a challenge. That said, I look forward to what changes they are looking to make.

Hello travelers, my name is Inaki and I live in the north of Spain (Basque Country Bilbao), I love to travel, I’m a wheelchair user (spinal cord injury), Spain is a country with a lot of places to visit, I have been lucky enough to travel and I know many places (the north is my specialty but do not hesitate to ask me).
