Canoeing Down The River Sella
The mass event called Descenso del Sella is more than just the central fiesta of the Asturian summer. It also represents a yearly competition for a sport practised by thousands of aficionados all the world over from spring to late autumn: river descents in canoes.

The Romanesque Route in Asturias
Mention of Cangas de Onís immediately conjures up images of the Picos de Europa mountain range, the mountain of Covadonga
Few are aware, however, that from here we can make a tour of the Principalitys main Romanesque churches.

Oviedo
Set plumb in the middle of the region of Asturias, Oviedo is the capital of the whole Principality and also its administrative, political and cultural centre. Elegant and stately, its particular historical-cultural interest stems from the nearby Romanesque buildings, listed as a World Heritage Site by Unesco.
