👍👍 Hands down one of the best flamenco shows I've been to. There's a bar along the side to enjoy a glass of wine or beer before the show starts. The venue is small, so most seats have a good view. We had the pleasure of meeting the stars of the show, they were such incredible people.

👍👍 Very nice place to visit. Very calm and close to nature. Lots of herbs are there. Apple, walnut, berries trees everywhere. Natural water resources. Awesome view from hill tops. Tourists can roam around by cycle also.

👍👍 This is a really cool place. Most science parks or zoos look run down, but this one is really well kept!
