A day in Rihonor the Castilla and Rio de Onor
La Raya: Soulmates
Venue: Rio de Onor
Read moreRio de Onor looks in the mirror and sees Rihonor de Castilla, and vice versa. La Raya, the border area between Spain and Portugal, is capable of creating a fusion of worlds where the traveller may not see the subtle differences that may or may not be present. Rio de Onor, in Bragança; Rihonor de Castilla, Zamora have inspired writers such as Miguel de Unamuno and José Saramago.
On this occasion, participants will share an inspiring and moving day, with an exchange of poetry readings from both sides. A workshop will put local craftsmanship within our reach; and let’s not forget the pleasures of local food at a medieval mill, one of many dotted along the Great Route of Moinhos e dos Lameiros. On this day —a celebration of unity— Spain and Portugal walk in step, separated and joined together by a simple line drawn on the map.
