Zaragoza

Spain’s hidden treasure of art and heritage

In Zaragoza, you’ll feast on classics like migas (breadcrumbs with chorizo) and bacalao ajoarriero (cod with garlic), all paired with local wines that rival Spain’s best.

With over 2,000 years of history, Zaragoza is Spain’s fifth largest city and is the capital of Spain’s autonomous region of Aragón. In route from Biarritz, France to Barcelona, you will encounter Meli Melo. Like finding a needle in a haystack, a penny in the sand or perhaps like finding a pot of gold! We asked the Spaniards in the know and here is where they sent us! Innovative. Modest. Delightful! Best Tapas in ALL of Spain! We dare you to find another!


Zaragoza, the capital of Aragon, is a hidden gem rich in history, art, and culture, often overlooked by travelers rushing between Madrid and Barcelona. It’s an off-the-beaten-path destination perfect for those seeking authentic Spain.
