Another of Spain’s historic old villages which simply demand to be explored, Pals is located about 45 minutes east of Girona. Pals boasts a very beautiful historic Old Quarter where you can spend a few hours strolling along winding cobbled paths, surrounded by medieval architecture. There are four intact defensive towers, linked by ancient stone walls, which offer sweeping views across the countryside and out to the ocean. Historic highlights of the village include the 1000-year-old Church of Sant Pere and the fortified Museu-Casa de Cultura (which also houses the Museum of Archaeology). Pas has a reputation for gastronomic delights – you can soak up the unique atmosphere while you enjoy one of the village’s traditional rice dishes.
