Aragon stretches across three provinces in northeastern Spain, preserving more than two thousand years of history through its monasteries, castles and medieval villages. The region displays Moorish towers in Teruel, Romanesque churches in the Pyrenees and Gothic bridges along ancient trade routes. Natural parks protect limestone canyons, caves holding prehistoric paintings and mountain ranges extending to the French border. Visitors explore fortified villages such as Albarracín and Sos del Rey Católico, where stone walls and narrow lanes tell of medieval life. The 11th-century Castillo de Loarre stands on a hilltop overlooking the Ebro valley, while Sierra de Guara Natural Park provides trails through deep gorges. Monasteries including San Juan de la Peña and Monasterio de Piedra connect religious history with surrounding landscapes, creating destinations that combine cultural heritage with natural environments.
