Enchanted City

The Ciudad Encantada, or Enchanted City, is an incredible and spectacular natural site located in the heart of the Natural Park of Cuenca, a few kilometers north of the village of Valdecabras, and about 30 from the city of Cuenca.

Declared a site of National Interest since 1929, it is an absolutely incredible and unique place, with incredible rocks, which thanks to erosion over the centuries water and wind have assumed particular forms, each one different from the other and with its own characteristics.
So, walking along the path of this suggestive park, you will come across “Los amantes de Teruel”, or The lovers of Teruel, or “El Tormo Alto” (The high rock), probably the most famous conformations of the Ciudad Encantada. There is also room for The Turtle, Mushroomsi, the Convent, The Seal, and many other figures.
A geological phenomenon capable of involving both the oldest and the youngest.

Obviously, suitable clothing is recommended depending on the period, and sneakers: one walks enough. In winter it is preferable to take an umbrella with you, or a more comfortable waterproof jacket, considering the rains; in summer, never miss a bottle of water.
