Palencia, located about 260 kilometres (161.5 miles) north of Madrid, is often overlooked on the tourist trail, being overshadowed by larger and more well-known destinations in Spain. Palencia is worth discovering for its many parks, including a large forest known locally as “Monte el Viejo” or Old Mount, which serves as a recreation park for locals, and the picturesque Calle Mayor (High Street) pedestrian street adorned with 18th-, 19th- and early 20th-century architecture. The Cathedral of Palencia, a Gothic cathedral built in the 16th century, La Olmeda Roman Villa, a 4th-century house with amazing mosaics, and the medieval Puente Mayor across the Carrión river are some of the must-see sights when visiting this city.
