San Pedro Manrique is a municipality in Soria in the Tierras Altas region, in the community of Castilla y León. Its origin dates back to the Celts, Vascones, Iberians and Romans. With the passage of time, other neighboring towns such as Sarnago, Las Fuentes de San Pedro, Matasejún, Palacio de San Pedro, Taniñe, Valdenegrillos and Ventosa de San Pedro have been incorporated into the municipal area. San Pedro Manrique is well known for his particular way of celebrating San Juan Day. On the night of San Juan the well-known "paso del fuego" is carried out, in which the embers of a bonfire are stepped on by the town's natives, barefoot and carrying someone on their backs. Among its heritage, the hermitage of the Virgen de la Peña, the church of San Miguel, the remains of a castle on the outskirts and the ruins of the convent of San Pedro el Viejo stand out.

Spectacular town located on the northern side of the Sierra de Alcarama. From a distance you can see how the center is located at the top of a hill with its church as a flag. The group of houses form a very beautiful perspective.

Vilarroya is a small municipality in the Arnedo region, in the province of La Rioja and the autonomous community of La Rioja. It is one of the municipalities with the least population in all of Spain, with only five registered inhabitants. The depopulation of Vilarroya has been gradual throughout the 20th century, until the nearby coal mines were closed in the mid-1960s, which accelerated the process. Despite being a victim of depopulation, Vilarroya has the Association of Friends of Vilarroya, which, among other activities, paid for the restoration of the parish church of San Juan Bautista. The church has a single nave, four sections and a head. The first two sections are covered with edges, and the last two sections with a barrel vault. For its part, the head is covered with tiercerons. The tower, with three sections, was built by José Soriano, a resident of Autol, in 1714.
