The Valdepeñas Ornamental Fountain is located in the Plaza de España, the historic heart of the town. It is one of the city's most emblematic features and stands out for its design and symbolism: Design: A very beautiful ornamental fountain, considered a visual symbol of the square. Setting: Surrounded by historic buildings such as the Church of the Assumption and the neoclassical Town Hall. The square is characterized by traditional white and indigo arcades. In 2017, the flowerbeds were redesigned, and a permeable fixed aggregate was installed to preserve the design and reduce maintenance.

It is located on 1º de Julio Avenue, near the Plaza del Convento and the San Juan Bautista de la Concepción Church. The work reflects Don Quixote's utopian idealism, his struggle for justice and human values in the face of a dehumanized society. It is considered a mature work by the artist, laden with symbolism.

This is where we find an equestrian statue of the Hidalgo, a tribute to Don Quixote. This work, more than 6 meters tall, was erected in 2006 in memoriam of Alberto Ramírez López.

Almagro's Plaza Mayor is the most visited and one of the busiest squares in the city. It dates back to the Middle Ages, with arcades and corridors, and underwent a major transformation in the 16th century as a result of the arrival of the Fuggers, German bankers who were subjects of Emperor Charles V. Throughout history, it has received other names, such as Plaza de la Constitución, Plaza de la República, Plaza Real, and even Plaza de España after the Spanish Civil War. The square measures approximately 104.5 meters by 37 meters. It has an irregular rectangular layout. On one of its larger sides, it opens onto the so-called Palacio Maestral (Master Palace). This square also houses the Town Hall, but perhaps what deserves special mention is that in the former inn in this main square of Almagro, we find none other than the Corral de Comedias (Comedy Playhouse), the only one of its kind in the world, declared a monument in 1955. In this square, there are shops where you can buy crafts and typical food from the town and the surrounding area. There are also several bars and restaurants with impressive terraces where you can enjoy tapas and wine, or enjoy a home-cooked menu or typical dishes from La Mancha.

The roundabout in Torralba de Calatrava next to the Campoblanco Hotel Restaurant is located on Highway N-430, Km. 256. This hotel offers accommodations with a restaurant, bar, and free parking. It's a popular spot for travelers visiting the area, and the restaurant is known for its varied menu, which includes Mediterranean and Spanish dishes.

In Valdepeñas, there is an impressive statue of Don Quixote dedicated to Alberto Ramírez López. This statue, inaugurated in 2006, is 6 metres high and made of bronze. It is located on Avenida 1º de Julio. The sculpture shows Don Quixote with his arms crossed, riding a tired and thin Rocinante.

Torralba de Calatrava is located in the centre of the province of Ciudad Real. It belongs to the historic Campo de Calatrava and orographically forms part of the western plain of La Mancha, a large geological depression filled with marl, clay and sandstone. The Guadiana River runs through the northern part of its area, together with the La Posadilla, Morillas and Pellejero streams, which caused so many shocks in past centuries with their floods.

A great day to stop at one of the bars in the square and have a snack.😉 while you can already see everything with the Christmas decorations.
