I found this terrific HD video capturing the producer's ride on the train to Soller. http://vimeo.com/groups/8053/videos/11386517
A little history for you . . . Ever since 1912 the Sóller railway has been running a daily train service along the 27.3 km route between Palma de Mallorca and Sóller, without interruption.
2) Check out the town.
See the railway station in Soller (garden and rooms dedicated to artists Joan Miró and Pablo Picasso) and the Can Prunera Modernist Museum.
Go to Can Prunera, a beautiful Modernist-style home converted into a museum following a careful restoration. The building, which was first completed in 1911 is a fine example of the conceptual unity of modernism because apart from the architecture, the interior design and furniture all belong to this period. Modernist decoration can be seen in the spiral staircase, the lamps, the glass partitioning, the woodwork, and on the ceilings and floors.
The new art museum at Can Prunera was opened on 24th August, 2009 and its contents feature works by some of the great masters of the 20th century: Picasso, Joan Miró, Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, Giacometti, Cézanne, Barceló, Juli Ramis and Matisse, amongst others.
Other good examples of modernist architecture arethe Bank of Soller and the San Bartolomé parish church.
3) Take the tram to the Port.
From 1913 the railway has also run the tram service along the 4.9 kilometres from Sóller and the Port of Sóller.
Visit the Sculpture Park. Its exhibits include fine works by contemporary Majorcan artists and by island residents. Stroll along the marina or go to the beach.
