Calatayud is a small city located in Aragon, which is not very renowned for tourists, but it can offer a lot of interesting points.
I've been going there to visit my grandma since I was a child, Still today I feel something weird in the solitude of the castle, in the middle of a desertic area, and domining all the valley.
.
One of the highlights in Calatayud is the "mudejar" art. Mudejar is a spanish word used in art, which means that muslim elements that we can find in christian territories. That's why we can find a lot examples of christian architecture with muslim influences in style.
In Calatayud, the highlight are two towers like the one in the picture, whih domains still today the skyline of the city.
