Cangues d'Onís, Administrative division in eastern Asturias, Spain
The municipality extends across 212 square kilometers of mountainous terrain, featuring the Sella, Güeña, and Dobra rivers flowing through its landscape.
The area gained prominence as the first capital of the Kingdom of Asturias, with the Santa Cruz church constructed in 737 on an ancient dolmen site.
The Sunday market represents a long-standing tradition where local farmers and artisans gather to sell fresh produce, cheeses, and regional products.
The municipality functions as an entry point to Picos de Europa National Park and provides direct access to the Covadonga lakes through mountain roads.
A medieval stone bridge spans across the Sella River, displaying a large Victoria Cross suspended between its central arches.
