Virtual Walk - Windmills of Spain
Enjoy a windmill walk in Castilla-La Mancha in Spain. The windmills are located
on a hill, providing stunning panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
Consuegra is one of the most famous places to see windmills in Castilla-La Mancha.
There are 12 well-preserved windmills located on a ridge alongside Castillo de
Consuegra, an impressive castle adjacent to the windmills.
These windmills were immortalized in Miguel de Cervantes' novel "Don Quixote,"
where the title character famously battles them, mistaking them for giants. Each
windmill has a unique name, such as "Sancho" and "Rucio," echoing characters
from "Don Quixote."
