Albarracín and Teruel: Forgotten Kingdoms
Immerse yourself in the world of Mudejar art, historical fortifications, decorated watch towers, legends, the pink mountain villages, the famous hot chocolate and mountain cuisine. An incredible way to spend the day in the heart of Spain, on this day excursion from Valencia.
The setting of Romeo and Juliet’s Spanish equivalent “Los Amantes de Teruel”, the region of Teruel climbs high above the sea and strikes you with its vast wheat fields and sunflowers. The city of Teruel is surrounded by a medieval wall and dotted with unique square towers with unparalleled views over the city. Then a drive into the countryside and through the mountains to see what is believed to be the most beautiful village in Spain, Albarracin. Nestled on a high hill over the river and flanked by 14th century walls, Albarracín stuns from whichever way you look at it. Enjoy local dishes such as cured meats in raisin wine or ‘patatas a lo pobre’.
