Castile and León

If you want to travel to the past accompanied by a good wine and a plate of Iberian acorn-fed ham, your place is Castilla y León. Because nowhere in Spain will you feel as much like a Homo sapiens as in the Sierra de Atapuerca or as much like a knight as in the Castle of the Templars in Ponferrada. You just have to delve into the heart of Castilla and sail the Ribera del Duero to taste the most coveted wine in these lands, accompanied by tender lamb in one of the corners of Peñafiel. Are you coming on a journey through Castilla y León?

“There are so many castles that, even though they no longer mark boundaries, they continue to give this land its name.”

On your trip to Castilla y León, you can walk under the Aqueduct of Segovia, lose yourself among the walls of Ávila, and feel like a student through the streets of Salamanca until you reach its cathedrals and its famous Plaza Mayor, some of the places to see in Spain. Because Castilla y León are those medieval castles surrounded by narrow, labyrinthine streets, it is that Lake Sanabria that merges your reflection with the horizon, and that natural landscape of Las Médulas where you might find some gold left behind by the Romans. Because traveling to Castilla y León is to tour the Royal Sites and feel the history of Spain alive in every corner while you let yourself be amazed by a Ribera del Duero wine.
