The Monasterio de Santo Domingo de Silos is considered to be one of the most culturally and historically significant monasteries in Spain. If you are lucky, during a visit to the monastery you will be able to enjoy the world-famous Gregorian chants of the monks, who still cultivate and practice them today as ever. An album released by the monks was in the US charts for 53 weeks and went platinum three times.

In this monastery you will find the oldest or most ancient (that's where the spirits argue) Romanesque cloister with very beautiful pillars and reliefs. One should look at the details.

It is a very beautiful place, the last weekend of January there is a festival with parades and horses and torches are lit throughout the town, it is said that it was so that the French did not enter to conquer it and believed that they had burned the town, nearby La yecla is a natural place between the mountain and the river, there is also the cemetery where the good, the ugly and the bad Sad Hill were filmed
