Great Discoverers of the New World or poets of the Great Court of Madrid of the Austrias.

I'll tell you about the popular names and their meanings, including anecdotes and curious stories like the café la'Chichilana or the Bombé walks, and the curious storey of a seal “influencer” in the town
We'll discover palaces with ghosts or churches that “exchanged the saints” or that are “upside down.” A street that turns into a river once a year… a thousand anecdotes and stories that make the city with the most columns in Spain (almost 4 km of arcades)

We'll wander from medieval streets and buildings from that era to large modernist palaces built as residences for industrialists who arrived from “the Americas” in the 19th century, passing through Baroque palaces and even the jewel of 21st-century architecture.

During the 2.5 hours we'll be together, you'll discover that Avilés is full of charming spots.

Starting from the town hall square next to the fountain on Calle de la Fruta (right by the town hall opposite the pharmacy), we suggest a leisurely stroll along the iconic streets of Galiana or Rivero, with their houses and arcades that make them so unique, and one of the town's largest parks to discover one of the most popular spots for locals and its modernist architecture.
