Travellers are surprised at how much there is to enjoy in León: from its Roman origins, its 13th century Gothic cathedral, its royal basilica and collegiate church of San Isidoro to modern times with modernist and contemporary buildings.
But that's not all, we also have palaces from the Renaissance period, today converted into buildings for other uses, such as the magnificent Parador de San Marcos with a spectacular Plateresque façade.
All of this is enhanced by squares, parks, gardens, and streets of exquisite cleanliness to finish with a "vueltina" (stroll) through the famous "barrio húmedo" (wet neighbourhood). A wine, a beer, a tapa is the culmination of a day rich in positive experiences.
Dare to get to know León with the best local guides - you won't regret it!
