Buendía, Administrative division in Cuenca, Spain
Buendía stands near the Sierra de Altamira mountains, featuring sandstone cliffs and pine forests along the edges of a water reservoir.
The municipality of Buendía developed during medieval times as a strategic settlement controlling access routes through the mountainous terrain of central Spain.
The Route of Faces in Buendía displays 18 sculptures carved into rock surfaces, forming an open-air gallery that combines art with natural landscapes.
Visitors can access multiple hiking trails connecting the town center to the reservoir and sculpture routes, with paths suitable for different fitness levels.
