Time in the historic center of this city for lunch. Just 7 km from Soria, we visit the archaeological site of NUMANCIA (entrance included) Celtiberian city famous for its 20 years’ resistance against the Roman army, which ended with the suicide of its entire population.

Our first stop in this wine tourism stage will be in TRICIO where the Basilica of Santa María de los Arcos (entrance included), the oldest religious monument in La Rioja, is located. This primitive Roman mausoleum of the third century was transformed into a Christian basilica in the fifth century, reusing architectural elements from the ancient Roman city of Tritium Megallum (Tricio the Great), which included the current town of Tricio, Nájera and other nearby towns. We continue crossing the Riojan landscape to reach NÁJERA, another of the places of passage of the pilgrims. The town is divided by the river Najerilla and on one of its banks houses a monument of great importance: the monastery of Santa María la Real (entrance included). It has a magnificent cloister of the knights of the sixteenth century where Gothic, Plateresque and Renaissance styles are combined.

We continue our wine route visiting HARO, wine capital of La Rioja, whose internationally renowned wineries are as important as their artistic and architectural legacy: Town Hall, Church of Saint Thomas, numerous palaces and ancestral streets. We will visit one of its famous wineries to discover the production processes and, of course, taste their wines (entrance included). We will have time for lunch in this city full of taverns and restaurants.
