The wall walk was very historic with terrific views. However, the office wasn't open the hours advertised so make sure you check a head of time.
What a charming village. The wall looks like a fairy tale. The town is peaceful and full of narrow winding streets lined with lovely buildings.
Well worth visiting. Ticket was €5 to visit both sections of the wall and included the Audio Guide. Allow about two hours to cover both sections.
Great place! Love the food, pleople are very charming, it's a magical place!! Will come back in summer time!
Breathtaking driving in. Gave me a renewed respect for people of the past protecting their core beliefs. Shattered the stereotypes about women and most of all saw hie faith in a deity can bring about the improvement in the lives of others. Avila is not to be missed. The preservation of the wall is remarkable and i probably lost 5lbs walkung on the wall. That alone made it worth it! Must visit.
These walls are impressive, you would be hard pushed to find better examples. They are in good condition and complete, and free to view.
This is a phenomenal place to visit. There is an overall sense of peace here- that is in direct contrast of the history of the place. I have visited several times. In March, at Christmas, at other times of the year. Overall one of my favorite places in Spain. The people who live there are friendly as well.
Great views of the city and unique opportunity to enjoy history. you can do it in half day and then hit other towns nearby
From far away, you can already see the magestic Walls of Avila for all it's grandness and historic value. It's easy to see why it has stood the test of time and is as breathtaking to see. This is well worth the visit, and awe inspsiring what was built/accomplished all those years ago!
The walls of Avila are outstanding with their complete encirclement of the city and impressive battlements. Some of the approaches might spook the nervous, but they are worth it. The section South of the cathedral is only short, but offers the finest views.
