FEATURE: SPAIN'S HUMAN CASTLES
Catalan's best kept secret is found further inland. Valls lies 100km due west of Barcelona, along the main coastal road. For centuries, the town was nothing more than a sleepy backwater and overnight stop on the way to larger Tarragona. While little has changed over the centuries, sleepy Valls does pack one hidden punch: it is the birthplace of the granddaddy of all traditional Catalonian performances – the Castells.
