I will tell you about the popular names and their meanings, as well as anecdotes and curious stories, such as the Café la'Chichilana, the Paseo del Bombé, and the curious tale of an “influencer” seal in the town.
We will discover palaces with ghosts and churches that “swapped saints” or that are “upside down.” A street that turns into a river once a year… a thousand anecdotes and stories that make this the city with the most columns in Spain (nearly 2.5 miles of arcades).

We will explore everything from medieval streets and a few buildings from that era to large Art Nouveau mansions built as residences for industrialists who arrived from “the Americas” in the 19th century, as well as Baroque palaces and even a gem of 21st-century architecture.

Over the 2.5 hours we will spend together, you will discover that Avilés is full of charming spots.

Starting from the bandstand in Parque del Muelle, we suggest a leisurely stroll through the historic centre of the Sabugo area, the city's origins, and along the iconic streets of Galiana and Rivero, with their houses featuring the arcades that make them so unique, or to admire 19th- and early 20th-century Avilés with its modernist architecture.

In short, everything that has given the city its current character.

So don't hesitate,

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU!
