20의 부에나슈 드 라 시에라가지 명소 & 주요 장소

These are only the last four houses of the 10 that existed in ancient times.

Original construction: The original bridge, built of stone in the 16th century, collapsed at the end of the 19th century. Current bridge: The current bridge was designed by the Valencian engineer José María Fuster y Tomás and built by George Henry Bartle. It is 100 meters long and 60 meters high. Views: It offers spectacular views of the famous Hanging Houses and the natural landscape surrounding the city. 😎🚶‍♀️

The current bridge, built at the dawn of the 20th century, is constructed of iron and wood and maintains the structure and style of its era, giving it the appearance of a footbridge. The original bridge was made of stone with five arches supported by rough-hewn pillars, some remnants of which still remain. Crossing the river at this point is a must-do on any visit to Cuenca.

The Plaza Mayor of Cuenca is a historic center and one of the most emblematic places in the city of Cuenca, in Castilla-La Mancha. This square is known for its Baroque architecture and its importance as a meeting point and hub of communication in the old part of the city. Main buildings: The Cathedral of Santa María and San Julián, the Cuenca City Hall, and the Convent of San Pedro. The most notable monument in Cuenca began construction at the end of the 12th century after the conquest of the city, but its core took shape in the 13th century. The naves, from the transept to the façade, date from the 14th century, and the ambulatory was transformed in the 16th century to adapt its original structure to new aesthetic trends. Its first façade also dates from this period, replaced in the 18th century by another that had to be demolished at the beginning of the 20th century, when the current Neo-Gothic façade, designed by Vicente Lampérez, was built.

I have always been struck by the front view of this Cathedral.

A beautiful sight

Extraordinary cathedral, a jewel of Cuenca architecture.

The Enchanted City, declared a Natural Site of National Interest in 1929. This world-famous geological phenomenon is made up of rock formations sculpted by the action of water, wind and ice, which, by eroding the rocks over the centuries, have managed to shape more than curious figures (human silhouettes, objects and animals) with a precision that is difficult to understand, until achieving a city that seems to be asleep under some mysterious spell. During your visit, you will be able to admire rock formations with curious shapes that recall human figures, animals and objects. Some of the most famous are “El Tormo Alto”, “Los Barcos” and “El Perro”
