Tudela

Tudela straddles the Ebro River in southern Navarre, and the fertile Ribera floodplain has long made it a market centre between inland Spain and the Ebro valley. The city’s Cathedral of Santa María de Tudela, begun in the 12th century on the site of the former main mosque, combines Romanesque, Gothic and later work; its south portal is noted for Romanesque sculpture. Tudela was also the birthplace of the 12th-century Jewish traveller Benjamin of Tudela, whose writings documented communities across the Mediterranean and Near East. Nearby, the semi-arid Bardenas Reales contrast sharply with the Ribera’s irrigated orchards and vegetable fields.
