2025 Historical Buildings

Casas Colgadas in Cuenca is a remarkable attraction that captivates visitors with its dramatic architecture. These historical buildings, known as the "Hanging Houses," cling astonishingly to steep cliffs above the Huécar River, offering breathtaking views. The wooden structures are characterized by their cantilevered balconies that extend dramatically over the edge, creating a striking silhouette against the landscape.

This charming hilltop village not only provides picturesque vistas but is also rich in cultural experiences, featuring a stunning cathedral, vibrant bars, inviting restaurants, and an engaging art gallery. The nearby San Pablo Bridge is a sight to behold, whether illuminated by day or glowing at night, adding to the area's enchanting ambiance.

Families will find the area suitable for children, though it's worth noting that prices in this tourist area can be on the higher side. Whether you're drawn by the history, panoramic views, or simply the unique architecture, Casas Colgadas promises a genuinely unforgettable experience.

Paisaje muy particular y merece la pena.

Het idee is leuk, hangende huizen maar in realiteit valt het tegen, dit vind je in Frankrijk, Oostenrijk en dergelijke. In een van de huizen is een museum gevestigd maar verder... De brug is een aanrader, van de overkant hen je een mooi uitzicht over de huizen, vallei enzovoort
