Upon entering Can Cardaix the first thing that invades us is the sensation of having been transported back in time. We are in an environment of 900 m2 visitable, spread over two floors, which has not been altered over time and has not suffered the impact of mass tourism. We begin to savor the atmosphere and traditions of a Mediterranean, hospitable and vital people: the Majorcan. Can Cardaix is also the birthplace of the artist Aina Maria Lliteras, the woman after whom the Foundation is named. A native of Artá, she is one of the most significant and recognized living artists of the current artistic scene, both in painting and in other techniques of the plastic arts. In 2002, she created a center-school for the promotion of creativity and an annual international art competition is held in her name. Can Cardaix has been adapted to visitors and offers a tour that takes us from the sixteenth century to the present. In the imperial staircase we find Lliteras' masterpiece, measuring 32 m2, which is also a philosophical study and which is placed on the ceiling. Then we will parade through a series of halls and rooms, the ballroom, rose, Solomonic, Alfonsina, Elizabethan, among others as well as see altarpieces, paridoras chairs etc.. We finish our tour resting in the cafeteria and we will be able to buy some souvenirs of cultural type in the store of the foundation. To accompany the visit, there are information panels in each of the rooms. In addition, explanations are offered to tour guides who are interested in learning more directly about the artist, activities, the building and the objectives and artistic collections of the Foundation. On the first floor is the point of sale of tickets as well as the small store of the Foundation where we find a catalog with photographs of the building and the artistic collection of the Foundation, as well as an explanation of the work GIRO Constante around the whole of Aina Maria Lliteras. Guided tours are given in Catalan, Spanish, English and German. The duration of the visit has a certain elasticity with a minimum of 20 minutes. The current exhibition space is approximately 900 square meters. The Foundation also offers the possibility of renting its spaces to organize cultural events.

The building is also unique in its interior for its versatility as it can function as a theater space, for conferences or congresses or also for concerts thanks to its retractable bleachers that leaves a clean courtyard for spectators. In recent years, the theater has become a reference point for "indie" and alternative music with concerts of nationally renowned groups. It also has a regular theater program for all ages.

This is the first Museum of Footwear and Leather in the Balearic Islands. It opened fairly recently (in March 2010) and is currently displaying a permanent exhibition of machinery and objects related to the leather industry. It also has space set aside for temporary exhibitions and for holding events such as talks and presentations. The one-storey building is a place dedicated to footwear and to the culture that has grown up around it, which is very important to the city and region. The Museum is housed in the Former Cavalry Barracks, popularly known as the General Luque Barracks. The building was designed by Francesc Roca Simó and alterations were carried out by Captain of Engineers Joaquim Coll Fuster. It was inaugurated in 1915. It is made up of a main structure and several wings which enclose a stone-paved parade ground. The façades have a symmetrical layout. The central part stands forward from the rest and features a Gothic arch leading onto the parade ground

The Ramis Factory is closely linked to Mallorca’s industrial heritage. After painstaking remodeling, it has re-opened its doors to hold corporate, institutional and private events. This iconic building was built at the end of the 1920s to house a textile factory. In the 1960s, the businessman, Antoni Ramis Tortella, purchased and converted it into a leather goods factory. In the late decades it was run by Francisco Ramis Obrador Today, the family has created a center to hold all types of corporate, social and cultural events. The building consists of four bays spanning 1,000 square meters each and a central patio and green area measuring 300 square meters. The central patio is also an ecological garden and features a sample of typical flora from the Balearic Islands. The factory’s most distinguishing feature is still the slim, 26-meter-tall chimney, a testament to the city of Inca’s industrial past and its ties to the world of leather goods and shoes.

The presence of painted tiles in the eaves is typical in Mallorca rural houses. Your background are medieval and the oldest part of Mallorca dates from the s. Xll. The function of the decorated eaves is a protective symbol of the roots and their inhabitants and in this case the eaves of the cloister was decorated with painted tiles whose inscrpition possibly represented a biblical, poetic or even profane text related to the convente. Once all the decorated tiles have been recovered, this text could serve as a basis for a reading of the same. The part of the tile that was hidden from the view had no preparation, and the symbols, signs or acronyms that can be seen in them were painted directly on it with red orcher (iron oxide). These signs consist, in a number and below a letter, uppercase or lowercase always inverted. It was assumed that they were codes to order the text when placing them. In this way the piece of decorated tile was visible, while the unpainted piece was hidden in the roof. The tiles have uniform measurements of 5cm in length, 24 cm in their larger opening and 16cm in their smaller opening. The restorción has made possible the recovery of many elements, previously beacuse of the dirt that impregnated the tiles and prevented their reading

It is the most important monument of the architectural heritage of Sineu. The old church was victim of a fire in 1505 and immediately after the construction of the new temple, also in Gothic style, began. In the years 1880 and 1881, this new temple underwent major expansion work, among which highlights the new chevet and transept, with an impressive octagonal dome on trumpets, which draws an agile play of star-shaped ribs. The main facade is of an austere Gothic style, and the crowning takes the form of a triangular headwall, with an opening where formerly there was a belfry. The lateral façade has an elevation divided into two sections. The interior of the church has a single nave plan with a transversal transept, with five chapels on each side. The roof of the nave has a ribbed ceiling. The church is presided over by the Gothic image of the Virgin Mary of Sineu, one of the so-called "virgin-sagrary", the work of Gabriel Mòger dated 1509. The fourth chapel on the left is the Capella Fonda, which is covered by a dome on pendentives, and houses the impressive Baroque altarpiece of the Virgin Mary of Rosal, from 1672, with paintings by Rafel Guitard. Closed for a period of 7 years, the church is now fully restored, all the stained glass windows that were missing have been installed, and, in addition, the pieces of the old altarpiece have been restored. It is also worth mentioning that in the vicarage of the same church, a museum has been opened with an important collection of antique escutcheons.

The Hospital of Sineu was possibly founded around the year 1240 by royal concession of Jaime I. In 1918 the first stone of the asylum that has housed until today was laid. Currently, the construction of a day care center is being planned. Within the Hospital grounds is the Oratory of St. Joseph, which was originally dedicated to St. George, until 1630 when it was dedicated to St. Joseph. Inside are numerous pieces of great value, among which are a Renaissance painting on panel, representing the Mother of God of the Rosebush and Blood, (work of Gaspar Gener), two holy water fonts, one with pedestal and the other attached to the wall; a wooden sculptural group of the seventeenth century that comes out in the processions of Holy Thursday and Good Friday and another sculptural group of wood and carving of the sixteenth century that also parades at Easter.

Casa Museo Joaquín Torrents Lladó, a space dedicated to this multifaceted artist who lived in the second half of the XX Century, is to be found in Palma. Oil paintings, drawings, water colours and sculptures form part of the material displayed in his former house and now museum. Joaquín Torrents Lladó (Badalona 1946-Palma 1993) first travelled to Mallorca in the summer of 1967. A year later, he moved into Valldemossa, where he cultivated his three interests: stage design, painting and theatre. Then he moved to the centre of Palma, alternating his sojourns in the Balearics with trips to Madrid, Stockholm, Florida or Venice, a city about which he was truly passionate. Casa Museo Joaquín Torents Lladó has been located in the former residence of the artist since March 2002. Two collections have contributed to the material: that belonging to the J. Torrents Lladó Foundation, which was created soon after the sudden death of the painter in 1993; and the collection of the Government of the Balearic Islands. The painter was an exceptional landscape artist and was also especially important as a portrait artist. During these years he came to immortalise figures of royalty and international politics, such as the King and Queen of Spain, various members of the Kennedy family, or Princess Caroline of Monaco. One of his most important recognitions came in 1988 when he was named 'World Personality of the Year'. A permanent exhibition composed of 120 pieces The permanent exhibition is composed of 120 works distributed over two floors covering every period of his production. Oil paintings, drawings, water colours, sculptures and personal objects recreate the life and work of the artist.
