Cathedral Segovia tourThe city of Madrid is great – meaning both nice to see and big in size – and, therefore, it has a lot to offer. It is advised to always include it as part of your itinerary when you take a trip to Spain. But, if you have been touring Madrid for a few days, once you have seen the main sights and architectural heritage, eaten all the typical meals of Spanish cuisine, enjoyed the cosmopolitan but at the same time laidback atmosphere of this city and done some good shopping in the big stores, you may feel like spending some time in a smaller city or a nearby town.
Especially at this time of the year, when the smaller crowds allow for a faster and more enjoyable sightseeing, you might desire –and have the time also- to see what the region is like.

Avila is 115 kilometers away from Madrid and reachable in one and a half hours. Almost 60.000 people live in this small city of Spain, which has the highest number of churches per inhabitant and is an important pilgrimage site.

Only part of its length remains visible nowadays, but we will learn all about it.
