Asturias Getaway
Nestled into the northern coast of Spain, Asturias is a region known for its sidra, which is traditionally served by pouring over the shoulder. That, along with the rolling, green hills and quaint, historic towns make Asturias the perfect weekend trip! The fantastic bus system makes it easy to visit three of the region’s major cities in just one weekend.
Here’s a quick snapshot of what awaits you:
1. Oviedo:
Weekend flea markets and insta-worthy architecture.
2. Gijón:
Majestic seafront views.
3. Avilés:
Vestigages from the Middles Age and picturesque town squares.
Buen viaje!
