Arevalo

Avila, the most amazing walled city made famous (for me) by C S Forester's (he of "The African Queen" one of the best movies of all time fame)  "The Gun", the book and the movie actually filmed against the backdrop of the genuine walls.  Made famous, because it was our "set book" for the year and totally absorbed a thirteen year old at the time.  Amazingly it turned out to be almost exactly as my tiny adolescent mind had imagined it!

This page still under construction, but still the beautiful town of Arevalo from the province.
