Cuenca is a town set in the mountains of east central Spain. Founded by the Moors it retains its historic
walled town with steep cobbled streets and medieval castle ruins, it is most famous for its well preserved
Casas Colgadas or hanging houses cantilevered over the Huecar gorge they appear to cling to the cliff
edges. The scenery is stunning and the hanging houses amazing, feeling brave you can cross the gorge by a narrow swaying bridge to take coffee in the Parador.
