Cervantes, one of the greatest writers of Spain, was one of the first to appreciate the greatness of these lands… and now it’s your turn! Our first stop is in Ávila, where we’ll visit the capital of the province that has the highest altitude in Spain. The ancient rulers of Avila, from the Romans to the Muslims, all left their influences on the streets of the city.
