In a place in La Mancha lies Puerto Lápice, whose name will be remembered by the follower in the footsteps of Don Quixote for its evocation of him, because everything that surrounds it evokes the magisterial novel that mentions this town up to four times. Its name also recalls its meeting of paths in the foothills of the Montes de Toledo and the lapícea stone floor that we walk on. "And, talking about the past adventure, they continued on their way to Puerto Lápice, because there Don Quixote said that it was impossible not to find many and diverse adventures, because it was a very fleeting place."

The name of Puerto Lápice comes from the subsoil on which it sits, which is made of pencil stone (portus lapidis). You must see The Plaza de la Constitución Puerto Lápice, a beautiful La Mancha style square with two heights of wooden arcades painted in red color. It is very photogenic! It is also worth seeing the sales, a group of houses, the statue of Don Quixote, the Roman Road and the mills.
