The main street of Cartes that is named like this because it is part of the route of the old Camino Real that linked the port with the Castilian lands.
It is the center of this small town that once housed one of the most important centers of manorial administration as one of the most important towns of the Asturias de Santillana, the noble family with the most power in these lands, with a succession of ancestral homes from the XV, XVII and XVIII centuries and that ends in its towers, with some examples also of Indian houses.

Its walk will not leave you indifferent due to its great beauty and its still remarkable medieval appearance. highly recommended
