10 AM: A start with views from the Castle of the Calatravos<\/h3>

We will start the day from the highest point of Alca\u00f1iz, enjoying sensational views over the city and the Guadalope River, but, above all, visiting its most emblematic monument: the magnificent Castle of the Calatravos<\/b>. This large construction is a Convent-Palace built on the Puis Pinos hill<\/b>, and houses one of the most interesting sets of Gothic mural paintings in all of Aragon, its original keep, and the Palace of the Commanders, among other attractions. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

But visiting Alca\u00f1iz has a lot of history, and to continue discovering it, we recommend descending to the central point of the city's social life: Plaza Espa\u00f1a<\/b>, where you can contemplate the Historical-Artistic Interest Site formed by the Town Hall<\/b> building and the Lonja<\/b>. Very close by is the Tourist Office, in whose lower floors one of the city's best-kept secrets is hidden: the underground passages of medieval origin<\/b>. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

It's time to eat and we invite you to explore the historic center in search of a corner where you can rest and enjoy some of the gastronomic specialties of Alca\u00f1iz. Meats and stews<\/b> are some of the most typical delicacies, along with a good sample of garden products<\/b> and a plate of Teruel ham<\/b> with olive oil from Bajo Arag\u00f3n<\/b>. And for dessert? Sweet lovers will have a hard time<\/b> deciding between the numerous local proposals, but let's not forget the fruit, because the Calanda peaches<\/b> have nothing to envy from the best pastries. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

6 PM: The greenest and most refreshing Alca\u00f1iz.<\/h3>

At this point in the day, you will have already realized the historical and cultural interest of the city of Alca\u00f1iz, but to continue the day we now propose you to discover its natural heritage. To do this, we will move about 4 kilometers away from the urban center until we reach the La Estanca<\/b> reservoir, a large lagoon that drinks from the Guadalope River. With its surroundings repopulated with pine trees, it has become one of the favorite recreation spaces for the people of Alca\u00f1iz, a place to enjoy wonderful views and an ideal enclave for practicing water sports, cycle tourism, hiking, horse riding, and fishing. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

More\u2026<\/h3>

The day is falling and perhaps it is time to head towards the next stage of the Route of the<\/span> 3 Kings. But for those who still want to steal a little more time from the day, a last proposal: discover Las Saladas<\/b><\/span>. It is a set of 30 water tanks, with a very high concentration of salt, a unique phenomenon in Europe but which is repeated in the Bajo Arag\u00f3n area and which is explained by remembering that, millions of years ago, the Iberian Peninsula was covered by sea. <\/span>They are located about 2 km from La Estanca.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

10 AM: Entering Morella through the Towers of San Miguel.<\/h3>

The Towers of San Miguel<\/b> are, without a doubt, the most popular point of access to Morella. And it is not surprising, these twin towers built in the 14th century have become an attraction in their own right. And it is that inside they house several surprises: an exhibition on carved stone works and another of antique miniature cars, but also a model of the Morella complex thanks to which the visitor will begin to sense the surprises that await him in one of the most beautiful towns in Spain. In addition, those who access the towers can go out to the bridge terrace and take a section of the Paseo de la Muralla<\/b>, which will take them to discover the door of the Antigua Nevera<\/b>. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

But surely what you will be waiting for is the moment to visit the jewel in Morella's crown\u2026 its impressive castle and its magnificent fortress<\/b>! So we won't make you wait any longer, we leave the towers to go find Calle del Castillo that will take you to the mola on which this construction stands.

After an intense morning at the castle, you will have worked up an appetite. That is why we suggest you go back towards the center of the town, but not before making a stop at the Town Hall<\/b>. Here you will be greeted by Seidia, Artal, Rosella and Abusaid, the four giants of Morella who live in the town hall, a building that masterfully combines the current activity of the Town Hall with respect for the history of the building. So much so, that its rehabilitation project won a Europa Nostra Award for architectural recovery of Heritage<\/b>. Even today, you can visit the old Gothic rooms and the prison<\/b> here. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

And now, it's time to sit down at the table. The gastronomic offer of Morella is wide and varied, with establishments where you can enjoy the most traditional cuisine, tapas and wines, or modern proposals. Whatever your choice, the truffle<\/b> has long become the queen of Morella's gastronomy and opting for a proposal that works with the ingredient will always be a good option. And for dessert? Tradition dictates: the fla\u00f3<\/b> is a must. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

With renewed energy, we suggest you go out to discover one of the most charming spots in Morella: the Garden of Poets<\/b>, a small and quiet place where you can discover the most beautiful verses of the main poets of the territory. We will continue with a walk that runs through places full of peace, such as the one that is breathed inside the Basilica of Santa Mar\u00eda la Mayor<\/b> and in the Convent of San Francisco<\/b>, the latter currently closed to the public for works. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The time is coming to direct our steps to the point where just a few hours ago we entered Morella for the first time. But on the way back to the Towers of San Miguel there is another must-see in the city: the Dinosaur Museum<\/b>, where you will get to know one of the oldest residents of the town, the Iguanodon<\/b>. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

10 AM. Following the Ebro towards the Cathedral of Santa Mar\u00eda. <\/h3>

Arriving in Tortosa, wherever you arrive, our first recommendation is to go in search of the Ebro River and start getting to know the city following its route. Of course, we will not do it aimlessly, our proposal is that you accompany us until we meet the Cathedral of Santa Mar\u00eda<\/b>, the main religious building of the capital of the Tierra del Ebro and one of the most notable exponents of Catalan Gothic. From the outside, its monumental baroque facade stands out and<\/span> the Puerta de la Olivera, and inside, the Capilla de la Cinta. In addition, you can also visit the permanent exhibition of the cathedral. <\/p>

Very close to here is Tortosa Cota 0<\/b>, a space where you can discover the footprint that Romans, Visigoths, Andalusians, and medieval and Renaissance Christians have left in Tortosa.<\/p>

without a doubt, the most popular point of access to Morella. And it is not surprising, these twin towers built in the 14th century have become an attraction in their own right. And it is that inside they house several surprises: an exhibition on carved stone works and another of antique miniature cars, but also a model of the Morella complex thanks to which the visitor will begin to sense the surprises that await him in one of the most beautiful towns in Spain.

Now yes, it is time to ascend through the city to the top of the central hill of Tortosa, where we will find the Castle of La Zuda<\/b>, of Andalusian origin<\/span>, perhaps the best-known monument in the city, and without any doubt, a wonderful viewpoint. But before arriving, we suggest you enjoy the road and take advantage of the ascent to get to know the charming open-air museum of sculptures of The Prince's Gardens<\/b> and review the city's most illustrious neighbors with the 15 characters that you will find along the Paseo de las Culturas<\/b>. <\/p>

The gastronomic offer is numerous and varied, but if you want to know the authentic flavor of the capital of the Tierras del Ebro, nothing like opting to try local recipes such as a good Delta rice, some specialty of abadejo<\/i> (cod) and the baldanas<\/i>. And for desserts? The proposal is extensive and the pastissets<\/i> of cabello de \u00e1ngel and the menjar blanc<\/i> the most popular. <\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
