Tarazona revisited

Yesterday we had a day trip from Zaragoza to Tarazona. It's just over an hour's drive, first on a toll motorway and then a winding country road with quite a lot of lorries on it.
Since our last visit in 2013 they have done a bit more work on the cathedral restoration. Everything looked clean and well-cared for.

Tarazona has a bullring which is made of an octagon of 32 homes. It was built in the 1790s and used as a bullring until 1870. The first time I saw it, it was being used as a car park, but now you can see the elegant structure perfectly.
