It has around 200 houses, clean streets and a medium-sized square. The parish church is dedicated to Our Lady of the Assumption. Despite its ruggedness, the district of Cuevas de Velasco has a good plain, fertilized by the Mayor River, which powers a flour mill.

Quiet town in the interior of Cuenca in which the Church of the Assumption stands out next to the main square where there is also a bar. From here you can start the route along the Monte de Abajo path, a very picturesque marked out itinerary to appreciate this area of Cuenca.
