    This point is wrong because the town of Uclés is a few kilometers further from here.

      Uclés is a very beautiful city but the monastery located there is something extraordinarily spectacular that is definitely worth visiting.
      Nowadays you can visit a part of the monastery by paying an entrance fee, since not everything is included in the interior tour, and also it no longer offers the possibility of staying there, which is a shame because sleeping in its rooms would be quite an experience. unique in the world.

        Halfway between Cuenca and Madrid, on the side of a steep hill, stands Uclés, a beautiful town of Celtiberian and Roman origins that seems anchored in the past. Surrounded by the remains of its walls, its towers, and on a hill the Monastery of Uclés. He belonged to the Order of Santiago, and is known as "El Escorial de La Mancha". It was built on the old Castle, from the 9th century, key in the Reconquest. Three towers remain of it: the Tribute, the Albarrana and the Silver. Part of the wall that unites them also survives.
