Default Are there sentences right?

Hi there,

Could you please tell me if these sentences are right?

Thanks

- I think you have to visit some places in Spain
-I think you have to visit some places of Spain

-"In Italy, there are a lot of people whose shops are all handicrafts"

-why so many people from other countries do their holidays in Spain?

1. The second version is not idiomatic for me.

2. I would say "shops sell all handicrafts". The shops are not handicrafts.

3. It would be better to use "do" after "why" and chnge "do" after countries. One could use "spend" there.

Here are my suggestions:

I think you should definately visit some places in Spain.
In Italy, there are a lot of shops which sell only handcrafts.
Why do so many people spend their holidays in Spain?

Cheers,
Sarah
