The medieval set of Besalú is a National Historic-Artistic Complex since 1966. You only have to cross the monumental stone bridge that leads to the historic center to travel back in time to the Middle Ages. To walk through the stone streets of Besalú is to live the history of that place hundreds of years ago. Let yourself be carried away by its medieval structure to the Jewish baths, the church of the monastery of Sant Pere and Sant Julià, the Romanesque house of Cornellà or the Gothic room of the Palacio del Curia Real. And, back ... marvel at the reflection of the arches of the old bridge over the waters of the river.

5. Cadaqués, Girona

(The route is approximately 2h and 14min and the distance is 186 km.)

(The route contains a toll.)

Picasso, Miró or the great Dalí spent long periods in this fishing village on the easternmost border of Spain, is for something. Perhaps it is the recess of a place that was practically isolated until the nineteenth century, the picturesque streets and whitewashed houses, the pride with which they live facing the sea, the boats on the beach or the climate touched by the fierce Tramuntana. Whatever it is, it is worth getting carried away by its labyrinthine streets that always end at sea, visiting the Salvador Dalí House Museum in the bay of Portlligat or walking through the Cap de Creus Natural Park. And, of course, do not leave without trying the local cuisine.
