                                                     upon a journey back to our very origins. Millions of years ago,
                                                     this was a land inhabited by dinosaurs. Over time, the current
                                                     landscape was formed and then further modified by the arrival
                                                     of humans and their exploitation of its resources.
                                                       This is a proposal for transversal and sustainable tourism.
                                                     Visitors can discover a territory whose landscape has been in
                                                     constant evolution and the emotions that it transmits.
