Transportation
León is linked to Madrid through high speed trains. Remember that VTC Spain can pick you up at the station and handle your transfers to the hotel or business place.
León is one of the most beautiful cities in Spain. Known for its gothic cathedral, it's also equipped with modern infrastructures which makes it an ideal place to celebrate your event or convention. VTC Spain provides private hire vehicle services in all the province and is your ideal partner for your transfers, whether you are travelling for work or pleasure.
León's visitors can enjoy its huge cultural heritage, built through centuries. The gothic cathedral is the best known example, but surrounding towns can also offer interesting sights. Places like Astorga, with its Episcopal Palace (designed by Gaudí), Ponferrada and its templar castle or the western region of El Bierzo are well worth a visit. A way to visit this region is by walking the Camino de Santiago (St. James Way), which crosses the province and passes through well known willages such as Sahagún, Villafranca del Bierzo or Manjarín. We should also mention the region known as the Maragatería, with an original cultura unique in the entire peninsula.
Not everything in León is about History, though. The city also has a modern hospitality industry and is linked through high speed trains (AVE and Alvía) to Madrid, which allows you to reach it from the capital in only two hours. When it comes to organizing conferences, the Ciudad de León Auditorium provides a remarkable, award-winning environment.
And when it comes to eating, the region also offers all kinds of options. From the "tapas" in the Barrio Húmedo in the city itself, to desserts like the "mantecadas" (shortbreads) of Astorga, León offers something for everybody.
