"Green Spain" Asturias.
[Introduction]:
The Asturias region is not only similar to Spain in terms of geographical location, but also has green Spain's mountains, grasslands, forests, lakes, and unique folk culture, forming a "green paradise" of freedom and healing.
⛺【Must-visit local places】:
The highest peak of the mountain range is located in the famous Picos de Europa National Park, which was declared the first national park in Spain by King Alfonso XIII. The rolling mountains, deep and tranquil valleys and mirror-like lakes form a dreamy landscape painting here. The lower water temperature keeps the green Spanish region cool and pleasant even in summer. The winding coastline has given rise to countless magnificent bays and hidden beaches.
Comarca de Oviedo is not only the filming location of the movie "Midnight in Barcelona" starring Scarlett Johansson, but also the cultural center and soul of Asturias. Churches, temples, palaces, fountains, six pre-Romanesque buildings have been awarded the title of World Heritage by UNESCO. Half of these valuable architectural heritages from the early Middle Ages are located in Oviedo.
Acuario de Gijon The Aquarium of Gijon allows you to experience the unique charm of the world's major oceans and rivers, such as the Atlantic Sea, the Pacific Sea and the Red Sea. The aquarium covers an area of 4,000 square meters, where visitors can see approximately 5,000 species of more than 400 marine species (including sea otters, sturgeons, Magellanic penguins and sharks), all living in tanks, each containing 1 million to 100 million liters of water. It is the only aquarium in Spain where you can see all five groups of vertebrates (mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds and fish), and the Cantabrian River adds to its unique charm.
