Laguardia

Originally founded by King Sancho Abarca in 1164, this beautiful walled hamlet, which was once a military fortress, is one of Spain’s most well-preserved medieval villages. Perched on a hilltop with views of vineyards on all sides, Laguardia is a wonderful place to walk through the narrow cobblestoned streets, which are lined with wine shops, pinchos bars and cafés. A visit to the city’s underground tunnels—which during military times were used to keep residents safe, and today are used to store wine—is a must.
