During the Middle Ages, Soria prospered through the wool trade and became known as the “Head of Extremadura.” Its noble palaces, charming Plaza Mayor, and deep literary ties — with writers like Bécquer and Machado — make it a symbol of Spanish identity and spirit. Surrounded by cultural treasures such as Burgo de Osma, Medinaceli, and Calatañazor, Soria also offers breathtaking nature in the Cañón del Río Lobos, Sierra de Urbión, and Laguna Negra. Its gastronomy is pure Castilian tradition — migas de pastor, roast lamb, black truffles, and Ribera del Duero wines. Soria is a journey through time, poetry, and beauty. 📌 Key moments of the video: 00:16 CAVE PAINTINGS 02:13 BATTLE OF DENAIN 04:30 GASTRONOMY 🔴 Discover more videos about Spanish cities►   • Cities of Spain: History and Monuments 🇬🇧   ➡️ Subscribe to our channel and activate notifications:    / @historyofspain   💻 Discover more on our website: https://historyofspain.es/en/ ► Follow us on our social profiles: ➔   / historyofspain.es   ➔   / historyofspain.es   ➔ https://pin.it/43aHHNylq
