    Oviedo

    Tourist attractions Oviedo

    Oviedo, the capital of the Principality of Asturias, is located in the north of Spain, surrounded by green mountains and just a short distance from the Cantabrian coast. It is a city with a strong historical and cultural identity, known for its pedestrian old town, its pre-Romanesque churches such as Santa María del Naranco and San Miguel de Lillo, and its Gothic cathedral of San Salvador. Walking along Calle Gascona, famous for its cider bars, or visiting Plaza del Fontán are must-do experiences for those visiting this charming city.

    A curious fact about Oviedo is that it hosts the annual Princess of Asturias Awards, a prestigious event that gathers prominent figures from the arts, sciences, and humanities. Moreover, Oviedo was the setting for the novel "La Regenta," a masterpiece of Spanish literature written by Leopoldo Alas "Clarín." This city offers a mix of history, gastronomy, and tradition in a warm and peaceful environment.
