Las Médulas (León province)

#mytraveldiary Las Médulas is a landscape unlike any other — red hills sculpted by Roman gold mining centuries ago. The contrast of rusty cliffs against green chestnut trees was mesmerizing. Hiking through the trails, I felt the weight of history while marveling at nature’s resilience reclaiming the land. The Mirador de Orellán offered the best panoramic view, where the vastness of the site truly sank in. Walking there was like exploring a forgotten world. It’s a place where history, geology, and beauty collide in a powerful way. #mytraveldiary
