From the majestic SS Asturias ocean liner to the captivating poster advertising Royal Mail Asturias Summer Cruises, this region has always been synonymous with adventure and exploration. The Battle of Trafalgar in 1805 holds a significant place in Asturias' history, reminding us of its strategic importance as we gaze upon the stunning view over the Mountain Range known as Picos de Europa. The rugged peaks stand tall, guarding the secrets of this enchanting land. Venturing further into Asturias, we discover Ribadesella's Tito Bustillo Cave, adorned with shaggy rock formations that whisper tales from ancient times. Crossing Cangas de Onís' medieval bridge takes us back to an era where knights roamed these lands. Covadonga lake nestled within Picos de Europa National Park showcases nature's splendor at its finest. As we explore its tranquil shores, we are reminded of Spain's diverse beauty found within Asturias' borders. Gijon's Cimadevilla neighborhood welcomes us at sunrise with warm hues painting the sky above. This coastal town invites visitors to stroll along its charming streets and embrace the vibrant energy it exudes. The Church of San Salvador de Valdediós stands proudly amidst rolling hills and green pastures—a testament to faith and architectural brilliance that characterizes Asturian culture throughout centuries.
