Today, 23 April, we are celebrating Book Day at Paradores. Join us on this literary journey that connects natural beauty and historic places with the immortal works of great Spanish writers. From the verses that Antonio Machado wrote in the Casa de los Poetas in Soria, and the places where Federico García Lorca found inspiration for his works, to the Plaza del Obradoiro in Santiago de Compostela, which Valle-Inclán described as the ‘Mystical Stone Rose’, each destination comes to life amidst words and landscapes.

The Parador de Corias is known as "The Escorial of Asturias" for its magnificent architecture, making it one of the most monumental monasteries in Europe, and as such, it is full of secrets.

However, other secrets, hidden in plain sight, make this Parador a veritable treasure chamber, and the fact is that inside the monastery you can find one of the best collections of bargueños in the whole of Paradores.
