Do you want to discover the famous Hanging Houses? On this day trip to Cuenca, you'll tour the main attractions of its old town and visit its best viewpoints.
Description
We'll meet at the scheduled time at Plaza Conde Casal in Madrid to begin this trip to Cuenca. We'll hop on a bus that will take us to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed city.
Once we arrive, we'll take a panoramic bus tour of the Hoz del Huécar, where the Hanging Houses, St. Peter's Convent, and the Posada de San José are located.
We'll then proceed to the neighbourhood of Castillo for a walking tour of Cuenca, visiting Plaza Mayor and the Nuestra Señora de Gracia Cathedral. Inside, the stained glass windows create a stunning effect.
You will have an hour and a half of free time to eat at local restaurants offering regional cuisine.
Afterwards, we'll visit the famous Hanging Houses, home to the Museum of Abstract Art, featuring works by artists like Chillida, Feito, Canogar, Oteiza, Millares, and Tapies.
In the evening, we'll return to the bus to conclude the trip, arriving back at the starting point after 8 hours.
