Spain's Fairytale Castles

Have you ever been to a Templar castle? The Templars were warrior-monks who had enormous power in the Middle Ages. Some of them were inhabitants of this castle that has gone down in history as the place of residence of the man known as Papa Luna, who was banished to this fortress for promoting a split in the Catholic Church.Peñíscola castle, built in 1307, keeps within its walls centuries of history and legends, and its imposing silhouette at the top of a peninsula dominates the coastline. You will definitely love walking through the network of steep white streets of the old town of Peñíscola until you reach the fortress with stunning views of the Mediterranean

A Weekend in New York City

New York City is one of those rare places that feels both historic and constantly new. Founded as New Amsterdam in the early 1600s, it grew through waves of immigration, trade, industry, and culture to become a city shaped as much by its people as its skyline. Every neighbourhood carries traces of that story—old street grids, landmark buildings, music, food, and traditions brought from all over the world. This mix of deep history and everyday life is what gives New York its energy and makes even a short visit feel rich and meaningful
