The Asturian capital can be seen in half a day. Its pedestrian, beautifully kept old town revolves around the one-towered Gothic cathedral, Escandalera square, the Campoamor theatre and Uría street.
Look for the Woody Allen statue (a great fan of the city) and relax in San Francisco park. Nearby are the pre-Romanesque Santa María del Naranco and the Cristo viewpoint.
