Sil Canyons, the lost paradise in the Ribeira Sacra
The Ribeira Sacra and the Sil canyons are some of the treasures of Galicia. The Ribeira Sacra is an area that includes the banks of the rivers Miño, Sil and Cabe and receives this name due to the profusion of different eremitical settlements promoted by the the Benedictine order. These date from the tenth and twelfth centuries. These places were built in spaces deserted of people and outside the pace of life of the cities.
