Leon is a perfect destination for all types of tourists: couples who want to enjoy a romantic holiday, foodies, architecture enthusiasts, and groups of friends looking to have a fun weekend. After spending one day sightseeing in the old town, travelers might want to give local food a try. Some of the most popular dishes in the region are ‘cecina’, 'morcilla' and 'cocido maragato'. To find the best eateries, head to the Barrio Humedo, one of the meccas for food and party lovers in Spain. On the other side of Calle Ancha, you will find the Romantic Quarter, the new hot spot in the city, with a great restaurant and leisure offer. The MUSAC is one of the most important contemporary museums in Spain and always hosts interesting exhibitions. Are you an outdoorsy traveler? Leon offers wonderful hiking opportunities. Our favorite is the Senda del Arcediano, an ancient Roman road that linked Asturias and Leon.
