Photo by javier_aznar_photography | Sunset in the windmills of Alcazar de San Juan, Ciudad Real. Giants for the Quixote,, windmills for others, these constructions are a symbol in Castilla la Mancha, being also a tourist attraction. Always located on high elevations where the wind blows strongly to move the sails in order to grind the grain in the past. Nowadays, these windmills are usually visited at sunset because of the nice views and the lower temperatures on the hottest days of the summer, reaching temperatures of 35º C during the hottest hours of the day.
