Leon
León can trace its history from Roman times and became an important staging post on the pilgrims’ road to Santiago. The13th century Gothic cathedral with its magnificent stained glass dominates; whilst Gaudi’s influence is evident at the Casa de Botines. A highlight of the old city is the Humedo quarter. León is just over two hours by high-speed train from Madrid and a 90 minute drive from Burgos.
