I felt genuinely welcomed to visit and admire this old church (for free). In the evening it was beautifully lit inside and there was some spiritual music on. It enhanced the experience and let me appreciate its unique character. Some other churches don't go to so much effort even though they have a little lot more to present.

The square itself is amazing. The restaurants are full from 3-4 pm for coffee and a bite, and a good glass of local wine enjoyed at any time. You ask for a good white or red, and every glass I had, I enjoyed. The museum was basic, but good to know the region and how it developed if you want to understand the terroire.
6. Ermita de San Felices de Bilibio

This is the first Dolmen site I've seen in Spain. It's very beautiful, scenic and rich in ancient history. I was very surprised that it's not very visited. One of the most unique structures anywhere in Spain. Like a miniature Stone Hedge without the massive tourist crowds. Well worth the detour if visiting La Rioja.
