Ribeira Sacra is a picturesque region located in the northwest of Spain, primarily in the provinces of Lugo and Ourense. Known for its stunning landscapes, it features steep river canyons, terraced vineyards, and ancient monasteries. The area is defined by the Sil and Miño rivers, which create dramatic gorges and provide a unique habitat for diverse flora and fauna. The region is also famous for its wine production, particularly the Mencía grape, which thrives in the rocky soil. Visitors can explore the historic Romanesque churches and monasteries, such as Monasterio de San Esteban de Ribas de Sil, which reflect the area's rich cultural heritage.
