Spain: The 20th Century in Color - Season 1 Episode 5 The 1960s
2.00 56 minutes The 1960s begin with a country changing at breakneck speed, leaving behind three very complicated decades. The arrival of tourism brings the construction of airports, hotels and tourist infrastructure. The arrival of cars brings the construction of roads, highways and the remodeling of cities that become occupied with four-wheeled vehicles. Trams begin to disappear while the Seat 600 becomes the star of the Spanish brand and becomes a key icon that enables Spanish mobility and the first vacation migrations to beach areas. The massive influx of tourists and foreign currency allows the Spanish economy to emerge from extreme poverty and view the future with a little more optimism. These are times of change with the arrival of new ideas. The electric guitar and the miniskirt are the new icons of youth. Household appliances arrive in Spanish homes and make life a little easier.
