Castilla-La
Mancha is an autonomous community in Spain, bordered by Castile and
León, Madrid, Aragon, Valencia, Murcia, Andalusia, and Extremadura.
It is one of the most sparsely populated of Spain's autonomous communities.
Its capital city is Toledo,
and its most populated city is Albacete.
Castile-La Mancha
or Castilla-La Mancha is where the fictional Don Quixote fought imaginary
windmills. Those windmills can still be seen today. The climate of the
region is desert-like, and the dialect of Spanish is very similar to the
Spanish spoken in Madrid.
Although La Mancha is a windswept,
battered plateau, it remains a symbol of the Spanish culture with its sunflowers,
mushrooms, oliveyards, windmills, Manchego cheese, and, of course, Don
Quixote.
