Laguardia (Rioja Alavesa)

Sitting high on a rock foundation. With in the shadows of the mountains to the northwest, the city retains, intact, its historic walls from the 13th century including its four entrance gates. With in its walls can be found historic building from various time periods. Today, the outer village walls are breached with glass windows, but it is easy to imagine the village as it must have been in the Middle Ages. There are only a few streets with in the old city, so navigating is fairly easy.

One can really get the feel of the Middle Ages from this shot (apart from the vehicle) V

This appears to be a very old village! Nice capture.

Looks a great place to visit and imagine being there in the Middle Ages.
