Gijon, a charming city in the Asturias region of Spain, is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. As the sun rises over Cimadevilla, the old town district, its narrow streets come alive with history and culture. St Peter's Church stands tall amidst this picturesque setting, reminding us of Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos, a prominent figure from Gijon's past. The echoes of the Spanish Civil War can still be felt here as we admire a vintage poster from CNT-AIT (National Confederation of Labor - Iberian Anarchist Federation). But it is not just war memorabilia that captures our attention; it is also the vibrant facades of old buildings adorned with bow windows that add color and character to this coastal city. As we stroll along the marina and explore more corners of the old town, Gijon reveals itself as a place where tradition meets modernity. The scenic street corners beckon us to capture their beauty through our lenses while Universidad Laboral impresses with its grandeur and architectural splendor. Plaza Mayor invites us to take a moment to relax and soak in the lively atmosphere that surrounds us. And when it comes time for some beachside fun, Playa de San Lorenzo awaits with open arms. Here we find typical beach tents dotting the sandy shores, adding an element of nostalgia to our seaside experience. Gijon truly encapsulates everything one could desire in a Spanish getaway – rich history, stunning architecture, breathtaking landscapes – all wrapped up within its vibrant streets. So pack your bags and embark on an adventure filled with cultural discoveries and unforgettable moments in this captivating city by the sea.
