The city we are moving to is Ciudad Real in Castilla La Mancha. It is situated in the central Spain -around 200km south of Madrid- and is the capital of the province bearing the same name, which means "Royal City". The population of the city is around 65000 inhabitants (though students raise this number to around 100 000) and it's said to be a growing long-distance commuter suburb of Madrid, thanks to the high-speed train connection between these two cities making the time needed for the travel less than 50 minutes.

Those pictures are pretty accurate.
That's a very beatiful town indeed.
I hope that I would have the privilege to walk on those squares in a sunshine. Well have to save some money first...hope it doesn't get too long. :)
