Kingdom of Navarre. Land of diversity

Authentic people

The diversity and the contrasts that define the landscape and the climate of Navarre also have an effect on the people of the region.

It is seen in the architecture of the towns and villages, in their traditions, dances and rural sports; all give you a sense of the people of Navarre and the way they live.

The steep valleys of the north, influenced by the Pyrenees and an Atlantic climate, mark out the noble and quietly friendly character of the people from caseríos (farmhouses), who enjoy tranquillity, conversation and telling stories around the fire.

Heading south, the mountains give way to wide plains burnt by the sun, where people like to get out into the streets; the climate has an influence on the extroverted and open nature of the people.

The desire to share celebrations with visitors and hospitality in general are clear examples of the nature and authenticity of the Navarrese.
