Leon, located in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula, is the capital city of Leon province. It is a city that is full of history, and many visitors come to see its important monuments and buildings.
Perhaps the most impressive is the cathedral, a 13th century Gothic construction with some fine decoration. Another major building here is the Basilica of San Isidoro, a true masterpiece of Romanesque architecture, painting and sculpture. It houses the Royal Pantheon, which is known as the Sistine Chapel of the Romanesque because of its beauty and importance. If you are taking a stroll through the city, don't miss Calle Ancha, an important place for the residents of Leon. Start in the Plaza de Santo Domingo, and finish by the cathedral, taking in the many interesting shops of the old town. If you want to experience the city's modern side, you should go to the Avenida de los Reyes Leoneses, where you can see the MUSAC museum of contemporary art and the interesting EREN building. A magical experience is to see Leon for the Easter celebrations.
Visit this splendid city and you will enjoy its many charms!
