走进迷人小村庄

这个迷人的小村庄被两座粉灰色块状山脉环绕着，与其说是山脉，它们实际上更像是一个巨大的岩层。900多英尺的高度也深受登山者和绳降者的喜爱。

村庄本身很小，其主要景点是 建于12世纪的圣地亚哥教堂。从村庄沿着小径步行即可到达这座教堂。在这座罗马式教堂内可以观赏精美的柱子，它们雕刻着精巧而奇妙的野兽以及各种圣经场景。在村庄中漫步时，山脉总是在房屋上方若隐若现，为村庄提供了美妙的背景。

Mallos de Agüero, Spain

Today we travel to Agüero, a picturesque town with just under 130 inhabitants in the province of Huesca, Aragon, Spain. While it’s small, there’s something that makes this quintessential Spanish town worth featuring in today’s image – and that’s the rock formation, known as Mallos de Agüero, under which it is located. Sculpted by erosion and hundreds of metres high, the Mallos de Agüero are reddish dolomite structures that act as the natural boundary between the Pyrenean mountains and the Somontano.

Nature abounds in Agüero, with the waters of the Gállego river flowing nearby and the famed Mallos de Riglos located on the opposite side of the riverbank. The town is surrounded by mountains, so the buildings you find here are perched at an altitude of almost 700 metres. Nature lovers can take part in a wide variety of activities, such as climbing, hiking, rafting and canoeing. And when you’ve finished exploring the outdoors, there’s history and culture to discover, the highlight being the Collegiate Church of Bolea, which was declared a National Monument of Historic and Artistic Value in 1983, and the Castle of Loarre, which is the best-preserved Romanesque castle in Europe.
