A Journey to the Spanish Pyrenees - Zaragoza (Region) This monument reflects a variety of architectural styles. As early as the 1st century BC, there was a cathedral at the same location, which was known as Saint Vincent's Church during the Visigothic period. It also served as a mosque. However, it wasn't until the 12th century that the first Christian church was built on top of these structures, and the church faced north instead of the typical eastward direction of the time, so as not to conflict with the Muslim direction of prayer towards Mecca. Changes were later made. La Seo incorporates Gothic, Mudéjar, Renaissance, and Baroque styles. The main entrance is Baroque, built in the 18th century. Inside, you can visit the Tapestry Museum, which houses some of the finest Flemish tapestries in the world.

Walking tour in the Spanish Central Plateau ~ Teruel (region) Teruel is located in the highlands of southern Aragon and its historic centre has preserved an important medieval heritage. The Cathedral Tower, along with the towers of San Salvador, San Martín and San Pedro, is the jewel of the Mudéjar complex and is listed as a World Heritage Site. A legendary city thanks to the famous story of lovers, Teruel has preserved charming corners such as the central Plaza Torico, the arched aqueduct and the popular Avenida Ellipse. On the outskirts, a more modern Teruel emerges, with a convention center and Dinopolis, a dinosaur theme park. Albarracín, a town declared a National Monument, Mora de Rubielos and other places are the perfect complement to a visit to the capital of the province of Teruel. From the earliest times, various prehistoric and Iberian civilizations settled near present-day Teruel. The city's rise and development reached its peak in the Middle Ages, when, when it found itself on Christian lands bordering the Muslim Kingdom of Valencia, a wall was built around its perimeter. It is this Islamic influence that has given Teruel and Aragon the most important remains of Mudéjar architecture in Spain, a style that combines Gothic and Muslim architectural elements. #AprilDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #Aragon

We have been vacationing at Botanico for years. We felt at home as soon as we walked through the door. They have it all here. Their staff is what a 5 star hotel should be, attentive, friendly and always willing to help. The service is second to none and neither will they try and help or for you. If you are looking for a wild modern hotel and this is not it, this is the place with a beautiful garden, pool, spa and a place of peace and quiet. Fantastic restaurant. Everything is a la carte, 5 stars again, with a variety of food for every taste. All I can say is this hotel is the best hotel we have ever stayed at. Very Good, Very Good. Se or Escobar and all the staff, 5 stars. #themepark#nationalpark#lakes#beaches
