 Parador hotel Spain Castilla Leon Paradors
Castile and Leon (Castilla y Leon) is the heartland of Spain - historically, aesthetically and culturally - and is the region that shaped the nation's history.
Castile and Leon stands on a high plateau, with mountain ranges to the north that shield it from the coast.
And although many imagine Castilla y Leon as a vast dry plain in which wheatfields cover the land, the region is surprisingly mountainous, dotted with lakes, often covered with forest land, and drained by the majestic Duero River that meanders west through the region to Portugal.

  Catholic First - St. Teresa of Avila - Interior Castle
Teresa was an incredibly gifted teacher whose devotion to the sublimest task -- the guidance of others toward spiritual perfection -- has resulted in the widespread fame of her writings.
In the evening, however, St. Teresa had a long conversation with her former confessor, who later was to become her biographer, and in the course of this she recounted to him the story of how she came to write the Interior Castle.
Teresa did not write it in any sense as a spiritual autobiography or an account of the wonders which God's Spirit had wrought in her soul -- still less as a literary work, a storehouse of spiritual maxims or a treatise on psychology.
