Brihuega is a beautiful town. Even if it wasn’t for the lavender fields, it’s worth visiting. It has a lovely old town and many balconies and streets have lavender ornaments.
We can live an exclusive experiences every July in Brihuega, when its fields are stained with an intense purple color caused by the lavender bloom. It is the Spanish Provence, it is a true spectacle of nature that every year causes exceptional and indelible sensations in the visitor.
The lavender fields of Brihuega, brushed with an intense violet hue, constitute a wonderful and unique image that our retina will never be able to forget.
The play of peculiar colors that are generated by the mutation of light, together with the breeze in the air that causes an unequaled swaying of the lavender flowers and the intoxicating aroma that completely soaks the air, make traveling through these fields an experience unforgettable emotional and sensory.
