See

  • This is not a town on the main trail for foreign tourists but it's no worse for that. It has long been connected with '''lace-making''' and there's an interesting '''museum'''.
  • The old part of the town is fascinating and it is still a minor port.
  • There is a disproportionately large '''Friday market'''.
  • The most interesting tourist sight is probably the '''Convento de Santa Clara''', later a school for delinquent boys. You may need to knock but then a guide will take you for a tour. A small fountain in a courtyard is fed by a narrow channel from a very long aqueduct, seen stretching away into the hills.
