20의 푸엔티두에냐 데 타호가지 명소 & 주요 장소

This section is popular with cyclists due to the allure of the tunnels and the gorge carved by the old railway line through the gypsum and esparto grass hillsides and ravines. The railway tunnels and cuttings are impressive constructions, both for their design and their railway efficiency. They facilitate the passage of trains across steep terrain and maintain a gentle, accessible gradient in challenging areas, with raised sections of the ground to reduce noise and visual impact in environmentally sensitive locations.

For its tower, which is worth visiting, and its tree-lined plaza where you can relax in the shade.

The Tower is the icon of Villarejo de Salvanés, it is a unique model of a keep among the constructions of medieval fortresses. Around it there are remains of the walls and rooms that completed the complex of the old castle of the town, occupied for several centuries by the knights of the Order of Santiago. The Plaza de la Constitución concentrates a good part of the monumental Villarejo de Salvanés, opposite the Tower is the church of San Andrés Apóstol, imposing and with tower-shaped buttresses that give a defensive appearance to the building. And one corner is occupied by the Casa de la Tercia, headquarters of the Encomienda Mayor de Castilla and current Ethnographic Museum. An interesting place for fans of the seventh art is the Museo del Cine, the first professional film museum in Spain.

The white and blue signs of the Camino de Uclés are paired with the yellow arrows of the Camino de Santiago de Uclés, one of the variants of the Jacobean routes that leaves for Santiago de Compostela from the Monastery of Uclés, one of the heads (Caput Ordinis) of the Order of Santiago from the 13th century.

It is a shame that only the keep of the entire walled building is preserved, but it is also fortunate to miss out on enjoying this architectural beauty, whose shape is peculiar and unusual in this type of fortress.

In the agricultural wastelands of Valdaracete, a striking journey towards the Tagus River begins through a curious landscape of clay hills and whitish marls in a desert and steppe environment, especially in the hard slides of Cerro de la Muela, a desert in Las Vegas, where the gypsum gullies that can become hell for pedaling on rainy days. The sensation of navigating a bicycle through distant and exotic latitudes ends when the road leaves the valley of the Valle stream, passes through the A-3 tunnel and ends in Fuentidueña de Tajo.

The Fuentidueña de Tajo bridge is an engineering work from the mid-19th century that restored the passage through this river on the way to Cuenca. It is the oldest large metal bridge in Madrid. This work allowed communications to be modernized at the time of its execution.

This viaduct, near Villamanrique de Tajo, seems to have been built for a train track. Today it is enjoyed by cyclists who circulate between Vilamanrique and Fuentidueña.
