I don't know how to include images, but I can give you the names of dozens of things...
We'll start with food:(And don't mean to be boastful),
Paella from Valencia, Gazpacho from Andalucía, Fabada from Asturias, Empanada Gallega and Lacón con Grelos from Galicia, Cocido Madrileño, Fritura Malagueña, Ensaimada and Sobrasada from Mallorca, and the most typical dish in Spain: Tortilla Española...just to name a few...
Spain is famous for:
its olive groves which produce the best olives and best virgin olive oil in the world;
its vinyards which produce some of the most delicious wines in the world, (the regions of: Rioja, Penedès, Ribera del Duero (for red wines), Montilla - Córdoba, Sevilla, Puerto de Santa María and Jeréz - Cádiz for dry white wines, Málaga for sweet wine);
its animal farming which produces fantastic types of pork sausages, chorizos, Serrano ham, etc. everything from Avila veal to ostrich farms;
its agriculture...asparagus, tomatoes, strawberries, citrus fruit, melons (the dark green skinned variety are famous world over) grapes (and raisins).

Spain is famous for its historical sites which go all the way from prehistorical locations such as the Altamira Caves in Santander to the ultramodern titanium structure of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. The alhambra in Granada, the magnificent castle of moorish times, dozens of towns with medieval castles, cities with famous cathedrals such as Barcelona, Madrid, Burgos, Toledo and Leon, palaces such as the ones in Aranjuez and Madrid, etc.;
Museums such as El Prado, Reina Sofía and Thyssen in Madrid, Bellas Artes in Seville, Picasso in Málaga, Dali in Cadaquès, and many more;
its festivals...El Carnaval de Cádiz before lent, Las fallas in march in Valencia, La Feria de Abril in Seville in april, Las Fiestas de San Fermín in Pamplona in july, La Feria de Malaga in august, these are the most well known, but there are doaens more...;
the religious pageantry of Holy Week processions in Seville, Malaga, Valladolid, and most of the cities in Spain; the "Romerías" or pilgrimages to famous shrines, the most well known being La Romería de la Virgen del Rocío in Almonte Huelva.; religious feasts and holy days such as La Virgen del Pilar in Zaragoza on oct. 12th.; La Virgen del Carmen, patroness of fishermen, with celebrations in all coastal towns on july 16th. and many more.
Spain is also famous for its beaches all along the mediterranean coast from Girona to Gibraltar...
its islands: the Balearic islands in the mediterranean and the Canary Islands in the Atlantic ocean (Tenerife has the most famous carnival celebrations outside of Rio de Janeiro).
There are also cinema festivals in San Sebastián, Huelva, Valladolid and Sitges...
And I'm sure I'm forgetting many things...
But this will give you a fair notion...
