From Medieval Fortresses to the Golden Harvest

Edition #287 of 365Santoral: San Calixto I

October in Andalucía is a period of transition where the fierce heat yields to a soft, golden light across our rolling hills. It is a wonderful time for food lovers as the harvest season begins and the Feria de San Lucas fills the streets of Jaén with music and local flavours. The air is crisp in the mornings but the afternoons still feel like a warm embrace.
