Alcalá del Júcar is a picturesque village located in the province of Albacete, in the autonomous community of Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. Known for its dramatic setting, the village is perched on the steep slopes of a gorge carved by the Júcar River. The town's whitewashed houses seem to cling to the cliffs, creating a striking visual against the rugged landscape. One of the most notable features of Alcalá del Júcar is its historic castle, which dates back to the 12th century and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. The village also boasts a charming church, the Church of San Andrés, and an array of traditional cave houses that have been converted into unique homes and accommodations.
