Peñiscola - Spain

Ana visited Spain again and I'm still waiting for that day when she decides to visit Portugal too. Come on, come on, the food is better here :) Thanks for the card dear!

Known as the City in the Sea, Peñiscola knowa how to balance the old with the new, with its Templar Castle and medieval walls that are enchantingly surrounded by water. The former Papal Residence is also on the official list of Spain’s most beautiful towns. In 1972 Peñiscola was declared to be an Historical Conservation Area, and in October 2015 it was a location for filming of Game of Thrones. Although being a film location is nothing new for Peñiscola, as it has played this role a number of times, including scenes from El Cid. It has also been featured as one of Condé Nast Traveller’s top towns in the community of Valencia. And if all of that isn’t enough to tempt you, Peñiscola is the proud owner of two blue flag beaches! - in: http://www.catalonia-valencia.com/peniscola-spain-travel-guide.html
