Cuenca, located in the heart of Castilla-La Mancha, is a city that fascinates with its unique location and impressive historical heritage. Built between deep gorges, perched atop a steep cliff, Cuenca is renowned for its famous Hanging Houses, the city's iconic symbol, which seem to defy gravity as they hang over the Huécar River gorge. This medieval gem was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its exceptional blend of historical architecture and natural surroundings.
Cuenca's old town is a maze of steep alleyways and charming squares that invite visitors to wander within its ancient walls and discover surprising corners. The Cathedral of Santa María and San Julián, an imposing building in Norman Gothic style, is one of the main attractions. Its façade and interior stained glass windows are a testament to the city's artistic richness.
Additionally, Cuenca is a vibrant cultural destination, with museums such as the Museum of Spanish Abstract Art, housed in the Hanging Houses, and a constantly evolving art scene. Its surroundings, with landscapes like the Ciudad Encantada (Enchanted City) or the Cuenca mountain range, offer options for nature and hiking enthusiasts. Cuenca is undoubtedly a must-see destination in central Spain.
