North Spain Tour - Cuenca

The old city of Cuenca was developed between a gorge and 2 rivers. We stopped here purposely to view the most photographed house in Cuenca, casa colgada or the hanging house, seized the opportunity of the town being passed during our route. This house is among many houses that built on the cliff of the gorge. 

Entrance to Casa Colgada, which is now housed abstract art by many artists.

North Spain Tour - Valencia

It has been a looooong time since I have updated my blog. I am too occupied with my living (studying) schedule, and have no time to write but ample time for travelling. I still owe myself many entries as this blog serve as my travelling journal. Despite some 'misplaced' of pictures, I decided to fill in the blanks against chronology.

So, during winter break, we went exploring North Spain. However our journey starts from Valencia. Valencia is emmm nice but the main attractions which is different from other part of Spain is the City of Arts and Science, which is worth visiting and it will take most of the time there. Other than that, we are used to the rest.
