Castellfollit de la Roca - a village on the rocks

Catalan village, with a population of about one thousand people, situated in one of the most picturesque places of Spanish Catalonia. That is why, here annually visited by hundreds, if not thousands of tourists.





Castellfollit de la Roca is located on bazaltovyh rocks. Moreover, in several places the cliffs are so narrow that they barely fit two rows of houses with incredibly narrow street between them. The village stands on a cliff about 50 meters deep. The place itself was chosen by the first settlers at the confluence of Flavia and Toronel. Given that the total area of ​​the village does not even reach one square kilometer, Castellfollit de la Roca is the status of one of the smallest villages in the area of ​​Spain.
