Castile and León is an autonomous community located in northern Spain. The picturesque province of Burgos is situated there with the capital in the city of the same name. The province is known for growing grapevine as the rivers Ebro and Douro perfectly irrigate the valleys. Tourists visiting Burgos have countryside villas and holiday cabins at their disposal. There are precious historic buildings in some cities of the province – castles, palaces, town halls, churches and monasteries. However, it is best to spend family holidays in small villages of the province. Apart from green landscapes and typical stone buildings, the countryside offers visitors numerous regional products: blood pudding (Morcilla de Burgos), red kidney beans (Alubias de Ibeas), sheep’s milk cheese (Queso de Burgos), cherries (Cerezas Caderechas), lamb dishes (Lechazo) and local wines.
