Morella: A Medieval Marvel

Morella is a stunning medieval city encircled by a 1,500-meter-high wall, giving you the sensation of stepping back in time. Each corner of Morella has its own charm, and the views from the castle are simply breathtaking. The town is also renowned for its gastronomy. Don’t miss the famous charcuterie, the traditional Sopa Morellana (Morella soup), and the delicious “Flaons de Morella,” a sweet treat made with ricotta cheese and almonds.

Peñíscola: The “City in the Sea”

Peñíscola, known as the “City in the Sea,” is a unique blend of island and peninsula, surrounded by water on three sides. This strategic location made it a coveted spot for various civilizations, including the Iberians, Romans, Carthaginians, and Arabs.

One of Peñíscola’s main attractions is the impressive castle, a medieval fortress built by the Knights Templar atop the city. It was so majestic that Pope Luna made it his residence. As you wander through the streets of Peñíscola, you might feel like you’re on a Greek island. The town is also famous for being a filming location for popular movies and TV shows like Game of Thrones, El Cid, and Chiringuito de Pepe. While in Peñíscola, be sure to try the seafood paella or cañadillas.
