Tembleque is a unique and picturesque spot in Castilla-La Mancha if ever there was one.




Tembleque is a typical town of Castilla-La Mancha, in the province of Toledo, organised around two plazas: the Plaza de la Orden (The Order's Plaza) and the Plaza Mayor. The two plazas are linked by a passage and around them are the most significant buildings of the town as well as the noble houses. Two storey manors with big whitewashed façades and patios can be found around the picturesque Plaza Mayor, which follows the architectural style of open-air amphitheatres and hospices with a functional aim: to serve as a meeting centre for the town during its festive events.
