A must see for those who love art and history. And for everybody else. Pitty you may only take pictures outside and of the cloister because there is so much interesting things to see on the inside. And what is a real shame is that you can only enter with a guide (and a guard joining every group) who explains everything in spanish... There is no audio tour. Luckliy the stories weren't endless, like in many other places, and the guide was happy to answer questions in english, but you can't ask everything time and time again... And still there is so much to see. Make sure to check opening hours, and families of 5 or more can enter for free.

It is the hilltop above Pancorbo Spain. It was a gun emplacment in the 1794-1823 garding the pass through the mountain. Amazing view in all directions, you can drive up almost to the top then walk along the ridge for a mile or more.
5. Monasterio Santa Maria de Rioseco

The ruins of the monastery of Santa Maria de Rioseco are in Manzanedo Valley, north of the province of Burgos. This is a superb building that belonged to the Cistercian Order, the "white monks" from the thirteenth century to the confiscation of Mendizabal in 1835 In his various architectural styles overlap, the church is an example of this, but it is also can be seen in other buildings and units as in the Herrera style cloister, the chapter house, granary ... Luckily a group of volunteer restoration work is undertaken to avoid the collapse of the building and the plundering and organize free guided tours throughout the summer.

This city, in particular, this area, has an amazing vibe. The pace is slower than in larger cities, but there is nothing small about this city. Lots to see. Take your time. Pictures I took are repetitive of the pictures already posted, so I will defer to the previous photos
