Valladolid is the capital of Spain's largest province, Castile-Leon, located in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula. This sprawling, modern city and former medieval town has a wealth of treasures, and is rich in ancient churches, museums and monuments. It is also is famous for its university, which was founded in the 13th century.

Places of interest include the beautiful 16th century cathedral. Additionally, the Museo Nacional de Escultura (National Sculpture Museum) houses a magnificent collection of intricately carved and painted religious sculptures, and the building itself is an impressive example of Spanish Renaissance architecture. There are many attractive parks and gardens which offer a taste of the countryside in the heart of the city, and it is especially nice to admire the peacocks in Campo Grande Park.

The Valladolid International Film Festival in October is Spain's major showcase for new international films, and is one of the country's biggest and most prestigious festivals, attracting some 80,000 visitors. The city's famous Holy Week processions at Easter and a riotous fiesta in September also bring visitors from far and wide.

Fishing, boating and swimming are all available courtesy of the Pisuerga River, which passes through this otherwise dry Castilian city. When you've exhausted the city's wealth of cultural and historic sights, relax in one of the excellent restaurants. Valladolid's 20,000-strong student population ensures there are plenty of lively bars and discos to keep you entertained until the small hours.

The city is also well placed for some fascinating daytrips and excursions by car to historic centres such as Salamanca and Segovia. Salamanca, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a magical city boasting Spain’s oldest university and ancient buildings of breathtaking beauty.

The charming, fairytale quality of Segovia is best noted in its twisting alleys sparkling with Romanesque churches. Picos de Europa National Park is characterised by its beech tree forests and charming mountain villages.

The Spanish capital of Madrid is a two-hour drive to the southeast via the N-403 national road and A-6 motorway. Talgo 200 trains arrive from Madrid’s Chamartin and Atocha stations, and several buses a day arrive from the Estacion sur de Autobuses in the capital. The city's Vallanubla Airport has daily flights to and from Barcelona and serves all the major European capitals.
