キンタニージャビバールの洞窟・トップ4

Short but hard climb.

Although its origins may be earlier, the castle dates back to the mid-15th century. The remaining remains are limited to the tower and part of the walled enclosure, forming a parade ground within. The building has a rectangular floor plan and walls of poor masonry.

Sotopalacios Castle is surrounded by a fence but can be easily seen from the path that surrounds it.

The Mirador del Castillo in Burgos is a balcony located in the ruins of the Burgos Castle (9th century). From here, you get the best panoramic views of the city, with the Burgos Cathedral in the foreground. In addition, on the floor of the viewpoint, you will find a beautiful compass rose that indicates the distance and direction from Burgos to other cities around the world. It is a place worth visiting to enjoy the views and history of Burgos! 😊

From this vantage point you can see the whole of the city of Burgos from a splendid square where at the foot there is also a huge drawn wind rose.

A good climb that was worth it for the views from the viewpoint.

Located on top of a hill. In the year 884 Count Diego Porcelos founded the city and this location served as a surveillance post for the Christian territories. The importance of the Castle grew along with that of the city until a lavish royal fortress was built inside it. The siege it suffered during the war of the Castilian succession was especially relevant, in which the supporters of the infanta Juana la Beltraneja resisted for several months the attacks of the troops defending the throne of Isabella the Catholic.

The way up to the Castillo o de La Blanca is a bit tedious, but the view over Burgos is simply wonderful.
