    La Santa is a beautiful abandoned town located in the Jubera river valley, in the province of La Rioja Media. The lands and houses were being abandoned as time passed and its population went from being 200 inhabitants in 1880 to having none in 1980.

      Reaching this abandoned village requires you to do some steep climbing. The ruins are fascinating. You'll find the remains of houses, a church, and even the town fountain. Not all of the ruins are accessible but you can enter as if you were walking into town. I recommend proceeding with caution, I don't think anyone is keeping track of the state of the ruins. I poked my head into one of the ruined houses and found it full of cow bones. Definitely a creepy spot but one worth visiting if you're willing to make the climb.
