Las Parras de Martín, a hamlet of Utrillas home to barely 20 people, will fill with music, dance and tradition from September 11 to 13 for the seventh Folclore Vivo Festival. The event aims to show that culture can help keep small rural communities alive and generate activity beyond major towns.
La Vaquilla del Ángel in Teruel has officially been declared a National Festival of Tourist Interest.

Aratea Venture’s industrial plant, dedicated to manufacturing flat-pack kitchen furniture, completed construction and the first phase of machinery installation several months ago.

Living among mountains, enjoying mild summers and having all the services of a county seat just ten kilometres away are some of the benefits offered by Cabra de Mora, a small village in Teruel that is welcoming new residents and entrepreneurs ready to develop a life project there.

Plaza de los Amantes in Teruel will change its appearance with a new vertical garden covering nearly 87 square metres of the existing concrete wall around the ornamental fountain.

Teruel is preparing to become the television setting for a journey through some of its best-known flavors, landmarks and stories. ‘De Tapas por España’, TVE’s gastronomic tourism and cultural outreach program hosted by Adrienne Chaballe, is continuing to film its third season and will visit the city on September 10, 11 and 12. The presenter will walk through streets steeped in history, romance and Mudéjar art while discovering the cuisine found on the hills overlooking the Alfambra and Guadalaviar rivers.
Clothing is perhaps one of the oldest symbols of status: garments have always conveyed information beyond their material.
