Haro

Haro, the de facto capital of Spain’s La Rioja region, is a beloved destination for wine enthusiasts. Each year at the end of June, the town hosts the Haro Wine Fight, an exuberant event where participants drench each other in red wine. Beyond its vinous attractions, Haro boasts a well-preserved Old Town and the architecturally distinct Church of Santo Tomás. Visitors can explore the narrow, winding streets of the historic center, admiring the traditional architecture, and step inside the church to appreciate its unique design. Today, Haro offers a blend of cultural heritage and lively festivities, making it a memorable stop in the heart of wine country.
