Best midway stop Madrid/Baza
Hi, We will be flying all night from the US to Spain, arriving in Madrid at ~ 9 AM local time. We'd like to get out of Madrid (car rental) and stop somewhere approximately midpoint between Madrid and Baza, Andalucia for a rest and rent a hotel/whatever for one evening to become acclimated to the time change/rest. I'm seeking suggestions of a nice relaxing place to rest midpoint between the two locations. Any recommendations? Thanks, barry |

Maybe Baeza near Jaen. http://barnal.de/fun/bilder/london_heathrow_sm.jpg If you just want landscape for a short rest, you might stop near DESFILADERO DE DESPEÑAPERROS http://www.andalucianatural.com/despenaperros/mapa.htm Regards, ULF |

.. . I'm seeking suggestions of a nice relaxing place to rest midpoint between the two locations. Any recommendations? It's a small detour from your route (20 miles), but *in* the route there's no such interesting place: Almagro. This village is well known for their Summer Theater Festival, playing 17C comedies. It has a beautiful Main Square, pure Castilian, and the Corral de Comedias, the place dating from the 17C where the comedies are played. This is the link to the route I propose in ViaMichelin, a very good Europe route planner (the link is shortened by TinyURL): http://tinyurl.com/28g7a In the step-by-step itinerary in the page, you'll find links to the tourist attractions of Almagro and even hotels. Just an alert: the names of certain roads (mainly expressways/highways, whatever you call them) have recently changed in Spain and not all the road signs and not all the names in ViaMichelin have already been changed. So, I would take more into account the name of the village ViaMichelin heads you to, than the name of the road. E.g. at the beginning of the itinerary, taking you out from the airport, ViaMichelin says: Head towards Madrid, Zaragoza, Burgos via N-100 for 1.1 miles. Well, N-100 is no longer N-100 but M-14. But the exit you should take is still Madrid, Zaragoza, Burgos. |
