”Ciudad de cantos, ciudad de santos” (the city of stone, the city of saints) – the proverb aptly describes Ávila, the highest located provincial capital in Spain. Ávila was the birthplace of Santa Teresa whose powerful character can still be felt in this city built inside walls. It is one of the oldest Spanish fortress cities and it is within a convenient reach from Madrid.
