Laguardia, or Biasteri in the Basque language, is a fortified town of 1500 people. The medieval walls are still present and there is a maze of underground caves which are used as wine cellars. This was one of my favorite towns in the Rioja region.
One of 4 medieval gate entrances to the village.
All over town, garlands of red peppers are hung.
Bronze sculpture of shoes. Another one with bags is nearby.
Coat of arms decorate door portals.
