Plaza Mayor of Albarracín - RED JACKETS with White Letters ANDADOR Guided Tours
Description
We will begin the guided tour in the Plaza Mayor , the nerve center of the historic center. The walk will take us through the alleys of the enclave to unravel its popular architecture, the physiognomy of its urban planning and the peculiarity of its color range. We will delve into its twists and turns to discover that not everything is as it seems. What is a blue house doing in a city like this? Did you know that it is Ciudad, the city of Albarracín?
As intrepid travelers we will continue our journey impressed by the challenges to physical laws described by some houses in our beloved city. There, the church of Santiago , with its outstanding bell tower, there the Molina portal and its secret, the Julianeta house . Closing roofs and winding streets lead us to the Abanico corner , and then relax with the views outside the walls crossing the Agua portal . Cathedral ? In Albarracin? That's right, and next to it is the Episcopal Palace , how strange, why do so many doors have lizards?
The viewpoint will reveal the powerful walls of Albarracín, at the top, the solitary bastion of the Andador continues, impassive to time, witnessing the development of the city since practically its foundation. Our steps lead us to the Monterde-Antillón house , the beautiful emblazoning gives us clues to the importance of the family. Our journey ends dear traveler, but there are always things to experience...
There is a very special house in Albarracín, a time machine that allows us to travel to a time of lords and servants, of opulence and humility and, above all, it offers us the opportunity to experience how the generations that preceded us lived. But that, that's another story.
