The capital of the province with the largest number of protected areas in Spain is in a landscape surrounded by olive trees. Its origin as a centre for Arab caravans, its importance as a strongpoint on the Castilian-Muslim frontier during the Reconquest and its current dedication to producing olive oil make it a must for visitors.The oldest part of Jaén is dominated by the Arab fortress that stands on Santa Catalina hill. From this height you can enjoy one of the best views of the city and the Guadalquivir valley. The Castle of Santa Catalina currently houses the Parador de Turismo, one of the best options for staying the night during your visit.At its feet, the oldest districts of the Andalusian city unfold, spread around the churches of La Magdalena, San Juan and San Ildefonso. But the core of this historic quarter is Santa Iglesia Cathedral. It is a monumental Renaissance building from the 16th century, which contrasts with the popular-style white houses surrounding it. As well as the main façade, the chapter house, the main chapel, the choir and the sacristy make good examples of the art of this period. Olive OilThe streets next to the church are the best for getting to know the area's cuisine. Olive oil with the Sierra Mágina Denomination of Origin accompanies Jaén cooking, one way or another. Pipirrana salad (with peppers, tomatoes and garlic), gazpacho cachorreño (cold soup made with bread, chorizo sausage, oil, vinegar and salt) or alboronía (a vegetable stew whose main features are broad beans, onions and aubergines), make up the starters. As a second course, kid with garlic, cod stew or pie stuffed with vegetables are recommended. To round off the meal you only have to try sweet tarts filled with walnuts or tocinos de cielo (custard made only with egg yolk and sugar) with figs.Continue your tour, looking at Jaén's civil architecture. Here you will find gems like the Palace of San Francisco – today, the Provincial Council building - or Villadompardo Palace. Plateresque façades and columned courtyards with Renaissance staircases are the main common characteristics of this type of building. Some Arab baths - a National Monument - that preserve ceilings with star windows, horseshoe arches and delicate capitals, are inside Villadompardo. There are also the museums of Naïf Art and Popular Arts and Customs.
