Visit Castilla y León, Spain

The Cathedral of Palencia is always amazing an a great place that is worth a visit. But there are some news: From some days ago, it's also visitable from the top. We invite you to enjoy it! It will be amazing!
The building combines various styles - Renaissance, and Gothic, among others - and contains numerous important paintings and sculptures. The underground crypt houses the relics of San Antolín, which lie beneath two previous structures, one Visigoth and the other Romanesque.
This pompous edifice is commonly known as The Bella Desconocida (The Beautiful Unknown One). Tradition has it that it as the king of Wamba who brought the relics of the French martyr Antolín to Palencia and, should this be true, it would explain some of the peculiar characteristics of the architecture, since the building must have formed part of an old martyrium similar to the ones found in Asturias or in old Christian art.

There is a place where the lands of Soria are structured to create a truly unique landscape, the Lobos River canyon, whose end must be sought in the province of Burgos. From the Galiana viewpoint, observe the deep canyon and imposing cliffs that form this unique natural reserve, sculpted by millions of years of erosion.
Enter juniper and black pine forests, home to a varied fauna. Observe pairs of griffon vultures, golden eagles, Egyptian vultures and falcons in their natural habitat. Visit the medieval castle of Ucero and enjoy unique panoramic views, contemplate the hermitage of San Bartolomé, a centenary witness nestled in the rocks of the canyon. A Templar hermitage from the 13th century that fuses history and nature, integrating gracefully into the landscape and offering a stunning view that will transport you to another era.
Come and enjoy it!

🦅🌲 El Parque Natural del Cañón del Río Lobos es uno de los paisajes más impresionantes de España: 20 km de cañón con escarpados farallones, bosques de sabinas y pinos, y cielos dominados por más de 100 parejas de buitres leonados.

🦊 Entre sus cortados y sendas habitan también nutrias, corzos, gatos monteses, halcones o águilas reales. Declarado Parque Natural en 1985, fue uno de los primeros espacios protegidos de Castilla y León.

⛪ En tu camino, además de la belleza natural, te esperan tesoros como la ermita de San Bartolomé, Ucero o El Burgo de Osma.
🚶‍♂️ Calza tus botas y déjate sorprender. La naturaleza te espera.
