THE
EMIGRANT´S HOUSE.
At the end of the XIX C , Perfectino Vietez, a wealthy emigrant who had
returned home, built a great house near to the site of the old Almuzara,
where he had been born, in the region of O Carballiño. Pazo de Almuzara
became an important building, home to noble families and kings, such as
Alfonso XIII. It was restored in the XXI C , and it boasts an immense garden,
and a spectacular swimming pool.
NEAR
TO THE GALICIAN ESCORIAL.
As it is situated in the Carballiño region, Pazo Almuzara is in close
proximity to the Oseira monastery, well known as the Galician Escorial.
Besides this, the area is famous for its wells and hot water medicinal spas
whose mineral properties are legendary, such as: O Carballiño, Caldas or
Partovia. Not to be missed is a trip to see the vineyards built up on the
sides of the nearby valleys cultivating the exquisite Ribeiro wine.
