LEóN

This historic city boasts ancient Roman roots and UNESCO recognition, offering charming streets, rich cuisine, and a vibrant atmosphere perfect for exploration.
BOOK EXPERIENCES ▸ The city of León, located in the northwest of Spain, is always a destination worth returning to. Its authenticity stems from a 2,000-year-old history that began with the Romans and the Legio VI Victrix military camp. The preservation of the heritage left by history makes León the perfect destination for those who enjoy walking over ancient stones. Moreover, the city has been recognized by UNESCO as the ‘Cradle of Parliamentarism’, as it was here that the seed of modern democracies was planted — León was the first place where the voice of the people was considered in legislation in 1188. A stroll through León is not only a journey through time but also a delight for all the senses. Getting lost in its narrow streets also means encountering a modern León, a city where the art of good living is taken to its highest expression. Having a drink in a bar comes with tasting a bit of Leonese cuisine through its famous ‘tapas’, small appetizers offered to customers, especially in the Húmedo and Romántico neighborhoods — though you’ll find them in any street of León, because this city knows how to live well, and does so deliciously.EXPLORE THIS CITY
