   • The Walls. Ávila’s UNESCO-listed walls are considered among the finest city defences in the world. They have a perimeter of 2.5 kilometres and are never less than three metres-thick.
   • Los Cuatro Postes. This is a pilgrimage site west of the city although nobody can really agree on its origins. One story has it that it was chosen after the plague had passed through the city in the 12th-century.
   • Basilica de San Vicente. This is one of the greatest achievements in romanesque architecture in Spain. Like many of the medieval buildings the basilica’s granite walls have an eye-catching texture, a kind of mosaic of lighter and darker stones.
   • Real Monasterio de Santo Tomas. The Catholic Monarchs Isabella I and Ferdinand II commissioned this monastery, a Spanish National Monument, at the end of the 15th-century.
