Llanes

A walk of the old city allows you to discover the medieval wall and the tower among the best preserved of Asturias…The city’s history has left its mark as well in a very balanced architecture.

To the Indianos we owe as well many schools, fountains, open sinks and traditional bowling places in the surrounding villages.

For the visitor is a must to stroll around old quarters, to stop for a “sidrina” (cider) in any sidreria that would wink at you, to follow the riverside until the port to discover the Asturian history painted by Ibarrola in “Los Cubos de la memoria” and to walk up to “Paseo San Pedro” along the cliffs to admire both the beauty of the cost and the closeness of the mighty Cuera. No wonder why LLanes has been chosen as a backdrop for the filming of so many films. …+ return…
