Parador Cangas de Onís The land of wooded mountains Asturias’ rich heritage reaches back thousands of years. During the Islamic rule of Spain between the 8th and 15th centuries, the region was a refuge for Christian nobles, and eventually became the cradle of the Reconquista, the military campaign to retake the peninsula from the Moors for Christian kingdoms. The region’s fierce independence over the course of history allowed for the development of its own language, Bable, which dominated Asturias between the 12th and 14th centuries and continued to be spoken by a large number of residents until the early 20th century. A decided effort undertaken by regional authorities in recent years has allowed it to flourish once again, and today between 60,000 and 80,000 people can read and write it. Nowadays, Asturias is most well known for its natural splendour, home to the Peaks of Europe and the Redes and Somiedo natural parks. These grand mountains slope down to verdant plains and ultimately end in the region’s extensive coastline, famous for kilometres and kilometres of charming, sandy beaches.
