Overview

This route is ideal to get lost, while learning its history, through the streets of Cuenca. From the viewpoint located behind the Arco de Bezudo, we will go down the gorges of the Huécar river and the Huécar river, letting ourselves be duped by its streets, buildings, people, monuments, up to the Plaza de la Merced and the Torre de Mangana. Once there we will walk the path to the famous Hanging Houses, to talk about the Museum of Spanish Abstract Art, named for the first abstract art museum located in Spain (we will not access the interior). Afterwards, we will direct our steps to the cathedral, where we will visit the interior of the first Gothic temple in Spain and its triforium.
