Valladolid Travel Experience: City Visit and Cold Surprise

Valladolid welcomed us as a lively city in the heart of Spain, a refreshing change after the smaller towns of our journey. We strolled through the center and discovered impressive sights, historic buildings and squares that tell the long history of the city. The shopping streets invited us to browse, and we took the chance to pick up a few things. Valladolid also offered culinary highlights, from traditional dishes to modern interpretations of Spanish cuisine, which we truly enjoyed.

However, the temperatures surprised us. For September it was unusually cold, and the fresh air took away some of the comfort we had hoped for. After a few days, we decided to leave earlier than planned. Longing for milder weather, we continued towards the Costa Blanca, where the sun provides pleasant days even in winter.
