Places to see in ( Pamplona - Spain )
Pamplona is the capital of Navarre province in northern Spain. It’s best known for the Running of the Bulls (Feast of San Fermín) in July. During this legendary multiday festival, bulls are led through the city streets by daredevil runners. A major stop along the Camino de Santiago, a medieval-era pilgrimage route, Pamplona is also home to Gothic-style churches including fortress like San Nicolás.
Pamplona is the historical capital city of Navarre, in Spain, and of the former Kingdom of Navarre. Pamplona is famous worldwide for the running of the bulls during the San Fermín festival, which is held annually from July 6 to 14. This festival was brought to literary renown with the 1926 publication of Ernest Hemingway's novel The Sun Also Rises.
After the 2015 municipal elections, there are 27 seats in Pamplona's municipal council: ten of Navarrese People's Union (Unión del Pueblo Navarro), five of EH Bildu, five of Geroa Bai, three of the Socialist Party of Navarre, three of Aranzadi (supported by Podemos Ahal Dugu), and one of Izquierda-Ezkerra.
Pamplona is located in the middle of Navarre in a rounded valley, known as the Basin of Pamplona, that links the mountainous North with the Ebro valley. It is 92 km (57 mi) from the city of San Sebastián, 117 km (73 mi) from Bilbao, 735 km (457 mi) from Paris and 407 km (253 mi) from Madrid. The climate and landscape of the basin is a transition between those two main Navarrese geographical regions. Its central position at crossroads has served as a commercial link between those very different natural parts of Navarre.
Pamplona has shifted in a few decades from a little administrative and even rural town to a medium-size city of industry and services. The industry sector is diversified although the most important activity is related to automobile industry.
Pamplona is the main commercial and services centre of Navarre. Its area of influence is not beyond the province, except for the University of Navarre and its teaching hospital, which provide private educational and health services nationwide.
Several notable churches, most of its 16th- to 18th-century fortified system and other civil architecture buildings belong to the historic-artistic heritage of Pamplona.
The most important religious building is the fourteenth century Gothic Cathedral, with an outstanding cloister and a Neoclassical façade. There are another two main Gothic churches in the old city: Saint Sernin and Saint Nicholas, both built during the thirteenth century. Two other Gothic churches were built during the sixteenth century: Saint Dominic and Saint Augustine. During the seventeenth and eighteenth century were built the Baroque chapels of Saint Fermin, in the church of Saint Lawrence, and of the Virgin of the Road (Virgen del Camino), in the church of Saint Sernin, the convents of the Augustinian Recollect nuns and the Carmelite friars, and the Saint Ignatius of Loyola basilica in the place where he was injured in the battle and during the subsequent convalescence he decided to be a priest. The most remarkable twentieth century religious buildings are probably the new diocesan seminary (1931) and the classical-revival style memorial church (1942) to the Navarrese dead in the Nationalist side of the Civil War and that is used today as temporary exhibitions room.
Pamplona has many parks and green areas. The oldest is the Taconera park, whose early designs are from the seventeenth century. Taconera is today a romantic park, with wide pedestrian paths, parterres, and sculptures.
The Media Luna park was built as part of the II Ensanche and is intended to allow relaxing strolling and sightseeing over the northern part of the town. After its demilitarization, the citadel (Ciudadela) and its surrounding area (Vuelta del Castillo) shifted into a park area with large lawns and modern sculptures.
The most remarkable parks of the new neighborhoods include the Yamaguchi park, between Iturrama and Ermitagaña, which includes a little Japanese garden; the campus of the University of Navarre; the Parque del Mundo in Chantrea; and the Arga park.
From the prominent military past of Pamplona remain three of the four sides of the city walls and, with little modifications, the citadel or star fort.

Trevélez, Las Alpujarras - Andalusia's Highest Village
After Switzerland, Spain is Europe's most mountainous country. Andalusia's highest village Trevélez also happens to be Spain's second highest village. An excellent base for hiking the highest peaks of the Sierra Nevada. An interesting tradition up here is the annual midnight trek to the top of Mt Mulhacen, the highest peak in mainland Spain. Through the night of August 4 every year, pilgrims from nearby villages climb this mountain in honour of the Virgin of the Snow, who is believed to have saved a priest's life in the nick of time while he was on his way to Granada from the Las Alpujjares. The pilgrims believe that every annual midnight trek will keep travellers safe for yet another year. Seems to have worked pretty great so far for Trevélez ???? Thank you @granadaturismo for this delightful drive into Andalusia's heights ❤ .

Ciudades para el siglo XXI - Cuenca (2/3)
Serie documental que habla sobre los aspectos tradicionales y los elementos innovadores de algunas ciudades turísticas españolas, situándolas de este modo en la vanguardia del desarrollo. Compuesta de doce capítulos, la serie hace un recorrido por diez urbes históricas. El contenido de cada pieza es una mezcla entre el documental televisivo y la guía de viajes, y desde el punto de vista rítmico incorpora elementos del lenguaje publicitario donde se realza lo mejor de cada urbe. La serie incorpora imágenes aéreas de las ciudades, hechas desde un helicóptero con Wescam, un sistema capaz de realizar tomas nocturnas de gran calidad, lo que ha supuesto poder enseñar planos de noche. Además éstas son grabadas en su mejor época del año para realzar su belleza.
