The houses of the Indianos have beautiful buildings with a very distinguishable architecture and beautiful colors. The Indians were emigrants who made their fortune in Latin America (Cuba and Mexico, especially). It is also worth seeing the Church of the Holy Cross, the Roman bridge, the Aula del Reino de Asturias, the Parish Church, the Pintu Palace, the Market Square and the Dago House.

Cangas de Onís is a town and a municipality in the eastern part of Asturias, Spain. It is the capital of the area of the same name, and it lies in the valley formed by the rivers Sella and Güeña.
Cangas de Onís has a rich history, as it was the first capital of the Kingdom of Asturias in the 8th century. It is also the place where the battle of Covadonga took place in 722, marking the beginning of the Christian reconquest of Spain from the Muslims. You can visit the nearby Covadonga Sanctuary, where you can see the cave where the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to King Pelayo, and the basilica dedicated to her.
One of the most emblematic monuments of Cangas de Onís is its Roman Bridge, which crosses the Sella River. It was declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1931, and it has five arches, three of them pointed. From the centre of the bridge hangs a reproduction of the Victoria Cross, a symbol of Asturias. Another interesting building is the Chapel of Santa Cruz, built on a dolmen in 437 and rebuilt several times over the centuries.
