Exploration of the Plaza de Armas Archaeological Site
On the hill of the Alcázar Real lies the Yacimiento Arqueológico de Plaza de Armas, a privileged window to over three thousand years of uninterrupted human occupation in ancient Astigi. It is the exact place where famous Roman mosaics such as those of Bacchus or the 'Amores' have been unearthed.
Visit to the Carriage Collection at Cría Caballar
