Another part of Spain with a special charm is Navarra. There you can visit the Bárdenas Reales , southeast of Navarra, specifically, in the Ebro river depression . It is a landscape that has been beautifully eroded over time and the result has been that, between the forces of wind and water, a semi-desert place with slopes, plains, plateaus and ravines of different shades of brown has been created. and reddish. These colors are due to the clay , sandstone, and gypsum that make up this soil.
