CASTILE
AND
LEÓN
A REGION OF ANCIENT CASTLES AND VIBRANT TRADITIONS
Castile and León, Spain's largest region, is a land where history and natural beauty come together. Ávila, surrounded by medieval walls, and Segovia, with its iconic Roman aqueduct and fairytale-like Alcázar, transport visitors back in time. The UNESCO-listed Salamanca is home to Europe’s oldest university and stunning Baroque architecture.
Beyond its cities, Castile and León offers rolling vineyards in Ribera del Duero and Rueda, where some of Spain’s finest wines are produced. The region's natural beauty shines in the Picos de Europa and Sierra de Guadarrama parks, ideal for hiking and relaxation.
Gastronomically, Castile and León delights with its roast lamb (lechazo), hearty stews, and regional cheeses and sausages, offering a true taste of the land. A region of rich history and vibrant traditions, Castile and León offers a unique glimpse into Spain’s past.
"Any reasonable, sentient person who looks at Spain, comes to Spain, eats in Spain, drinks in Spain, they’re going to fall in love. Otherwise, there’s something deeply wrong with you. This is the dream of all the world."
