Top Things to See in Roa

We made one last stop before heading to Madrid. We stopped in Roa, 20 minutes west of Aranda del Duero. It takes about 30 minutes to see the town.

Roa is a small town with a population of 2200. There are many good wineries nearby but check to see if reservations are needed.

The town has a few sights and several restaurants.
