Cuenca, a jewel nestled in the heart of Castilla-La Mancha in Spain, is a paradise for lovers of art and culture. The city is famous for its "hanging houses" (Casas Colgadas), architectural masterpieces that defy gravity on the edge of the Huécar river gorges. These historic dwellings now house the Museum of Spanish Abstract Art, where the works of Miró and Saura enchant visitors with their vibrancy and innovation.
Strolling through the cobblestone streets, one reaches the magnificent Cathedral of Santa María and San Julián, a sublime example of Gothic architecture with Romanesque influences. Inside, its artistic treasures tell stories of faith and beauty through sacred sculptures and paintings.
Cuenca is also an open-air stage for contemporary art, with installations and sculptures adorning its most picturesque corners. The Parador de Cuenca, a convent converted into a luxury hotel, offers a breathtaking view of the gorges and the ancient city, combining history, comfort, and art.
The artistic essence of Cuenca is breathed in every alley, square, and museum, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking an authentic cultural experience deeply rooted in Spanish history.
