Buitrago del Lozoya is a charming town in central Spain, part of the Community of Madrid 🏰. Known for its well-preserved walls dating back to the 11th century, it sits on a peninsula surrounded by the Lozoya river 🌊. Visitors can explore the Gothic-Mudéjar Buitrago del Lozoya Castle, the picturesque church of Santa María del Castillo ⛪, and even a small Picasso Museum showcasing works from the artist's friend, Eugenio Arias 🖼️. The town hosts lively events like the Belén Viviente and Medieval Fair 🎭, drawing in crowds with its historic charm and cultural offerings 🎉.
