Comment

Saint George Palace is an indoor sporting arena, that was built to be part of the 1992 Olympic games facilities, was used to hold several different athletic disciplines, and later was used for concerts, other sports, and meetings.
At the region Valencia, Balear Islands and South of France Catalan language is spoken, which is a romance language with very similar structure to Spanish and Portuguese, but many different words; usually Spanish and Portuguese talkers can fairly understand when spoken in Catalan, but, as said, there are many words that differ from Spanish and Portuguese.
