We went to the park to enjoy the park, nature and the Belen. Three wise kings to take pictures with and share the spirit of Christmas. Really nice park to walk, shame it was so cold!

We joined a tour given in Spanish but were handed audio guides in English which worked very well.This was an extremely interesting and well researched tour, taking you down into the crypt and showing the area beneath the vast cathedral pillars, explaining the history of the site, the building itself and the necessary work (currently 20 years - and running) which has taken place to stabilise it for the future. It seems that 1960s renovations weren't too helpful. The tour takes visitors (who must don fetching hair covers and hard hats) into the body of the cathedral, up to the triforium and the parapet and into the bell towers before finishing with a visit to the portico and the beautiful set of arches. Don't scorn the hard hats. Some of the arches you pass beneath are very low and it would be all too easy to graze or thump you head. It's not advisable if you suffer from vertigo - and some of it would be tough-going if you can't climb stairs easily. However, some areas are accessible by lift and I noticed one elderly visitor who had negotiated parts of the tour this way. Don't miss this tour. It's unique, informative and extremely professionally presented.

“Villa-Lucia with the 5 senses” is the first Wine Theme Centre in Spanish in the world that is universally inclusive and accessible. Just the right size to ensure the tour is both practical and interesting, it concentrates the culture and rituals of wine in a pleasant and amusing way. The latest accessible audiovisual effects, the virtual tasting sessions featuring aromas, odours, flavours and colours, and the didactic panels contribute to ensuring that the inclusive Villa-Lucia museum is a dynamic and attractive experience that prepares visitors for the key element of the tour: the “In a Dreamland” four-dimensional sensory experience; the first fully inclusive and universally accessible 4D experience in Spanish in the world. This project has been awarded the BEST OF WINE TOURISM INTERNATIONAL 2020 award by Great Wine Capitals.

The Salt Valley is one of the most spectacular and best preserved inland saltworks in the world. Its value not only lies in its particular architecture or on its almost 6.500 years of history, or even in its geological features, biodiversity or landscape values, but in the union in perfect harmony of all of it in a privileged context. This Cultural Landscape is candidate to World Heritage List of the UNESCO and is listed under the Ramsar Convention as a wetland site of international importance
Fascinating site, it feels like a totally different country when you are there looking at the terraces and the salt flats. The visit is really interesting, the hour flies by and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. It costs 8€ and you can use the spa at the end. The site has 7000 years of continual use, until this century when salt was no longer so important for preserving food. Best moment to visit is within May and October, although if possible avoid the midday heat.

Basilica of San Prudencio de Armentia is a beautiful Romanesque church, original and very old.This church is located in one of the most beautiful areas of the city. This is a must see tourist attraction. Beautiful outside and inside. The church has a Latin cross design with one nave divided into three sections with a cross vault.
