New year and new Spanish Capital of Gastronomy to place the city of Toledo, even more so, on the world maps of the entire gastronomic family.
Tourism is no longer understandable without its gastronomic fusion, which entails a symbiosis of difficult segmentation for those who visit the Iberian Peninsula or for those who do inland routes.
On January 1, the new Spanish capital of gastronomy was released, given by Extremadura Cáceres, after an exultant year of good food, good products and, above all, good gastronomy.
The first act of the celebrations with the XIII Migas Contest who organized the Toledo City Council And it will not be the only event that the authorities and the municipal council are already preparing for these celebrations that will involve 365 days full of gastronomy.
Last October we advanced the deliberation of the jury to grant the Castilian La Mancha City of Toledo the honor of celebrating the gastronomic capitality throughout 2016, and the entities and associations that bring together tourism and hospitality activity such as the Association of Hospitality and Tourism of the Province, They already have a very interesting calendar underway that will highlight each month of the year, a product of the land so that different acts, events and especially culinary actions take place around it.

A Capital that over four seasons will complete a very interesting year of events, competitions, conferences and, above all, good La Mancha cuisine.
In this month’s edition of the Travel Magazine, prestigious journalistic travel and tourism magazine, an extensive report on the city and its recent premiere in the capital is developed.
