Ok, Asturias is beautiful, so are lots of other places, why is this so different ? The thing that make this place so special is how compact it is. Yes, there are of course places with wonderful coastlines, miles of sandy beaches, gorgeous green and tranquil countryside dotted with farms, hedgerows and tiny villages tucked into the valleys. Moody and magnificent mountains looming out of the mist like a backdrop from Lord of the Rings. The big difference with Asturias is this is all so close together, within 20 miles you can experience the lot! Within another 20 you can throw in a trip to the city, this is what feels really unique about the region. You have to experience it to believe it.
