Asturias hides an infinite number of new places for visitors, and all which are interesting for tourists to discover. For example, there is the Municipality of Cabranes, which is rich in nature, culture, arts and crafts, gastronomy…
The capital of Cabranes is Santa Eulalia (Santolaya), set in central-eastern Asturias, in the Cider Region, and shares its borders with the municipalities of: Piloña, Villaviciosa and Nava; the latter two also belong to the Cider Region.
This place has many virtues, but the most emblematic is its natural surroundings. Meadows, valleys and indigenous forests in particular, all which make up a beautiful natural environment that captivates the tourist with its spectacular views.
Cabranes is, almost in its entirety, countryside, which means you can enjoy many sign-posted routes that run through the municipality. From high points, you can see plenty of indigenous forests and mountains that make up this municipality and you can also enjoy amazing panoramic views of the Sierra del Sueve and of the Picos de Europa.

In the Galician province of Pontevedra, there is a village which is known for its good climate, Sangenjo.
This used to be a fishing village centuries ago but…today its main source of income is generated by tourism. One of the reasons for this change is due to a 800m-long beach, Silgar beach, which is sheltered from the cold northern winds. But this is not the only beach we might find in Sangenjo; there are many more for everyone to enjoy.

GASTRONOMY: “GALICIA”
Jan 18, 2010 Activities, Culture, Galicia, Gastronomy, Sea, Tourism, Cultured Tourism, Natural Tourism
Galicia is an autonomous region of Spain and is internationally known for its countryside, beaches, rivers, islands, people…but one of the most important aspects of Galicia is its gastronomy.
Its gastronomy is characterised for being varied, for its wide cultural interest and for its centuries-old recipes which have survived the passage of time with no intention of disappearing. The secret of having these three ingredients is simple: natural, high-quality products and simple recipes.
Galician gastronomy offers dishes made from land or sea produce, in the form of ‘empanadas’ (a flat pie), pork shoulder, Galician broth…But as we all know, seafood is the main player: octopus, barnacles, prawns, spider crab…amongst many others.
