Curiosity · Valdés, Eo-Navia, Asturias

Image of Valdés, not of the place itself.

It looks out over the Cantabrian Sea from the La Atalaya promontory, beside the lighthouse and the chapel; Severo Ochoa, born in the town and Nobel laureate in Medicine in 1959, is buried there, his remains moved so that he could rest beside his wife.
