Segura de la Sierra Virtual Tour

Visita guiada virtual a Segura de la Sierra.

Como culminación alternativa a nuestro proyecto de Vivir y Sentir El Patrimonio "Sierra de Segura: todo un Patrimonio por Descubrir", y debido a las limitaciones impuestas por la crisis del COVID-19, nuestro alumnado de idiomas (Inglés, niveles B1, B2 y C1), han realizado esta visita guiada virtual a la localidad de Segura de la Sierra.

Originariamente iba a ser una actividad de visita in situ, donde nuestros alumnos/as iban a ejercer de guías explicando en inglés los lugares más destacados de esta histórica villa, pero obviamente, debido a las limitaciones de movilidad y reunión de personas, no ha sido posible.

Aún así esperamos que esta visita virtual sea de vuestro agrado y que os anime a visitar Segura, catalogado como uno de los pueblos más bonitos de España.

¡Bienvenid@s a este viaje a través de la cultura, la historia y la tradición!
