Typical Castilian town with an interesting old town. It has a wine cellar area as it belongs to the Cigales wine designation of origin. It has a very nice inn, two churches and a good gastronomic offer with two good restaurants. It is recommended to leave from Valoria to enter the Cerrato Palentino.

Perhaps the bridge in Palencia with the best views, both on one side and the other of the river.

Be careful in the basement, where the well is that permanently leaks water and there is little light. It is common to get your feet wet without realizing it.

This small town sits on the side of a small mountain, El Castillo, and overlooks the plains below. The Church of Santa María la Mayor is located at the highest point of the town.

This town dates back to pre-Roman times and it seems that not much has changed here in many years. The Baltanás Wineries are the most popular site in the city but the church of San Millán, the Hermitage of Nuestra Señora de Revilla and the Hermitage of San Gregorio are also important places to visit.
