Utiel-Requena has many touristic areas and offers many attractions linked to wine culture. We recommend that you visit the historic old town of Requena, home of the underground caves; the Sanctuary of Our Lady Virgen Del Remedio in Utiel (1,000 metres above sea level) and the many wineries that produce high-quality wine and cava. You will enjoy sampling the culinary delights that this region has to offer, such as the cured meats (embutidos); patisserie speciality el bollo; the alajú –sweet of Arab origin-; or traditional dishes such as morteruelo; gazpachos; ajoarriero and paella.
