<\/p>\n

Well, although Castell\u00f3n is the least touristic province of the Valencian Community, it is full of heritage, charm and unforgettable landscapes.<\/p>\n

That is why we recommend you to visit the most beautiful and charming villages of Castell\u00f3n. If you don’t know what they are, don’t stop reading, because below we will give you a tour of each one of them.<\/p>\n

List of some of the charming villages of Castell\u00f3n<\/h2>\n

As we have mentioned before, Castell\u00f3n is full of secrets, incredible landscapes and towns with great charm and historical heritage. Among all of them we can highlight the following:<\/p>\n

Morella<\/h3>\n

If we talk about charming villages in Castell\u00f3n, undoubtedly the first one we have to stop at is Morella, a town included among the most beautiful villages in Spain. This town impresses anyone who visits it already from afar, due to its swirling houses, surrounded by a great wall and located around a hill that is crowned by a spectacular medieval castle in ruins.<\/p>\n

But its charm does not disappear when you enter the heart of Morella, on the contrary, its steep streets, its medieval houses and its rich historical and artistic heritage make you take a trip back in time to a very distant era. Among the places you should visit in Morella, in addition to its spectacular medieval old town, is the Governor’s Palace which was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1931, the Church of Santa Maria, its walls and especially its Castle, from where you will have spectacular views.<\/p>\n

\"morella<\/p>\n

Pe\u00f1iscola<\/h3>\n

Another of the most beautiful and charming villages of Castell\u00f3n, which is also included in the Association of the Most Beautiful Villages of Spain, is Pe\u00f1\u00edscola.<\/p>\n

Surely you are familiar with its name, as it is one of the most frequented towns by tourists in summer thanks to its beach and its heritage. Its popularity is not fortuitous and its old town is unique and special. It is located on a rocky peninsula connected to the land by a sandy isthmus, crowned by an incredible castle and surrounded by walls.<\/p>\n

We advise you to enter and get lost in its narrow and steep streets surrounded by the typical white houses. In addition, you can not miss the Templar Castle of Papa Luna, the Casa de las Conchas, the lighthouse of Pe\u00f1iscola, the Church of Santa Maria, the artillery park or the Ermita de la Virgen de la Ermita.<\/p>\n

Mascarell<\/h3>\n

Mascarell is a unique and singular village, as this is the only village in the province of Castell\u00f3n that is completely walled. Its wall, which has protected the town for centuries, is not medieval, but of Arab style and rectangular in shape.<\/p>\n

This wall was built by the Muslims expelled from Burriana at the beginning of the 14th century, by Jaime I.<\/p>\n

Another peculiarity of Mascarell is that it was depopulated with the total expulsion of the Muslims, until it was repopulated again in the 18th century.<\/p>\n

In addition to this singularity, Mascarell was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest thanks to the unique agricultural environment that surrounds it.<\/p>\n

We recommend that you take a walk through its streets and visit its beautiful town hall or the Parish Church.<\/p>\n

Alcossebre is a town located in the municipality of Alcal\u00e1 de Xivert, in the province of Castell\u00f3n, on the Costa Azahar.

It is also about 50 kilometers north of Castell\u00f3n de la Plana and halfway between Pe\u00f1\u00edscola and Oropesa, two of the most popular tourist destinations.<\/p>\n
