You absolutely must visit this unique and striking castle. I recommend climbing to the top to enjoy the views from its privileged elevated position and imagining the times when such thick walls were necessary.

The King's Lagoon, one of the most emblematic lagoons in the Ruidera Lakes Natural Park: It is located within the municipality of Ruidera (Ciudad Real), at the main entrance to the natural park. It is one of the first lagoons you see when traveling through the park by road, very close to the town of Ruidera. It stands out for the turquoise color of its waters, which in some places are reminiscent of the Caribbean. It is photogenic and easily accessible, ideal for those looking for a place to relax or take a swim. The bottom is clearly visible thanks to the water's transparency.

Laguna del Rey is one of the most emblematic lagoons in the Lagunas de Ruidera Natural Park, located within the municipality of Ruidera (Ciudad Real). It lies just outside the town of Ruidera, and is one of the first lagoons encountered when traveling through the park by road. It is easily accessible by car, although parking near the water can be difficult during peak season.

A magnificent example of a montane castle, meaning one whose shape adapts exactly to the hill on which it stands. Its most beautiful feature is the main gate, opening into a bend in the wall and built as a reentrant in its uniform circular path. The magnificent ashlar work with which it was built is worth a visit alone, as is the pointed arch between its two strong towers. Erected by a Muslim garrison in the mid-12th century, it was continually conquered and recaptured, and Christians and Arabs alternated possession many times. It came to belong to the Order of Santiago in 1214, a possession confirmed by a papal bull. When the Alhambra district was divided between the Orders of Calatrava and Saint John, it lost its strategic importance and was gradually abandoned. The most curious thing about the castle is that, being mountainous, it never had an external enclosure or barbican, but rather a covered or protected path in its last section by a small wall, which allowed access under protected conditions.

This mill is mentioned in the Topographical Relations of Philip II, in the year 1575. The Molemocho Mill has been recently restored, and inside it offers an ethnographic exhibition of the different hydraulic elements that formed part of the installations of a mill.

Located at the entrance to the National Park, the Molemocho Mill Visitor Center is an old watermill, like many others that once took advantage of the abundant water flow to grind grain. The mill is accessed via a pleasant 400-meter walk along a boardwalk that begins at the designated parking lot.

This municipality is located in the La Mancha region, between the first foothills of the Montes de Toledo and the vast La Mancha plain. It is known for its cultural and natural heritage, including the Ojos del Guadiana site, the source of the Guadiana River. It also shares the Tablas de Daimiel National Park, an important wetland, with the neighboring municipality of Daimiel. Villarrubia de los Ojos has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages, when control of the territory passed from the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem to the Order of Calatrava after the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212. The town also boasts an interesting architectural and cultural heritage, including the Hermitage of San Cristóbal and the "San Isidro Labrador" Ethnographic Museum.
