Reality is harder than fiction... probably yes, specially when you find the fantastic Enigma, Legends and Mysteries of Cuenca Free Tour.

Passion, love, spells, nightmares, desires, tales with neverending story... let us show another face of Cuenca!

The meeting point is, as always, the door of the City Hall, and then, we will go to the san Miguel´s Quarter, because the people of theis area, say that since the XIX century, they know about the ghosts of this quarter...

Then, our way is the square of saint Nicolás, where the tradition evoke us the miracles done by the saint in Cuenca.

During our descending to the hermitage of the Virgin of the Angustias, we´ll uncover some secrets, as for example, the face of Jesuschrist and the beautiful legend of Giralte of Holland, an incredible artist of the Reinassance Century in the city. Later, in the little square of the Angustias, we´ll uncover the legend of the ¨Fountains of the Souls¨, a very interesting and missing tale of the Cuenca. However, in the same place, just in front of the Holy Cross in the garden of the ancient Convent of the Barefoot Franciscan Fathers, the people will be able to know the most legend of Cuenca, a fantasy tale worlwide famous (international youtubers tell the story in their channels and in social media): ¨The Cross of the Barefoot¨ or ¨The Cross of the Converted¨.

Until here, the first part of the tour. Now, we start the second one, following our way to the saint Peter´s Church, the very first one created by the Christianity in Cuenca. Here is a secret that a few people, the ancient, know, and there was a big problem for the Catholic Church in the XVIII century.

Our next step is the legend of ¨The Christ of the Alley¨, in the street Patrol Of Julián Romero, a soldier of the Spanish Army in the XVI century. One of the most famous legends of love and passion of the city.

Then, our steps will guide us to the Main Swuare and the Cathedral, because Nostradamus implicated the most important temple of the town with the Jugdment Day and the Revelations of Saint John...

The last three tales are the conquest of Cuenca by the noble king Alfonso VIII, and the famous Hanging Houses, of course, keep a secret within its walls, how could it be otherwise... the secret of a dangerous monk.

Fianlly, we will go to the Mangana´s Square, where we´ll put an end talking about a mystery, half fantasy tale, half pure reality, ¨The legend of the Witches of Mangana¨. Real and pure horror to finish of the best possible way!
