The name of this small village of only 50 inhabitants means "Bridge of God". His most photographed image is the natural stone bridge created by the Nela River. On the arch the town was created. In 2022, the association The Most Beautiful Towns in Spain announced that Puentedey was added to its list.

Natural Rock Arch of Puentedey

Highlight • Natural Monument

This is considered one of the most beautiful towns in Spain and for good reason. It is crossed by the Río Nela and where the houses are built above a natural cave that has created the passage of the river by making a hole in the stone itself. You can not miss it!
