Geography: Our trip to Valladolid and Peñafil












Hey everyone!

How are you?

Guess what?

On Wednesday my grade made a trip to Valladolid!. Where is Valladolid? Valladolid is in Spain, in a region call Castilla y León. Valladolid is a very important city due to its historical an economic sector.

We travelled by bus .After cross all the city we arrived near Campogrande a very big park located in the centre of the cut.We walked to the Big Square and we had to cross a very long street call Santiago street, at the end of this street full of shops we found the Square. I have to say that it isn't as beautiful as our big square, but it wasn't horrible.

Our teachers gave us some time to buy food or watch the shops. There are a lot shop you can find everywhere so if you go to Valladolid I recommend you to enter in that shops you never hear about.

After that we went back to the bus.

We arrived in front of the Miguel Delibes, a cultural centre very famous here. There we listened the most strange music I never hear! The concert was based in the classical contemporary music (Musician that composed brilliant pieces in the 19 century) The concert played with very strange instruments, dancers.. In summary an amazing experience. Some people didn't like it because it was so strange , I really enjoyed it but I'm not very fan of this style.

When the concert finished, we all were hungry, so we ate our meal in front of Jose Zorrilla stadium! We had a lot of time to visit shops in a near shop centre also.

Then we went to Peñafiel.


          Views


Peñafiel is a village half and hour far away of Valladolid. As I said before, Valladolid is a very historical city and Peñafiel is very famous too because of the amazing castle it has .

The castle is a defensive castle. That mean that it wasn't the palace were the nobles life. This castle was a fortress. The views were amazing and our guide really knew interesting facts about the castle. One of the thing that called my attention was the boat shape the castle has! it is really surprising. Also in the interior of the castle we can fine the Wine museum. it teach you all the process of the creation and the different type of grapes. I'm not very interested on it but people can really enjoy!.

After our visited we went back home again, exhausted and tired. but we really had a good time and that the best part of the trip.
