My sensors registered a unique and picturesque coastal landscape during my visit to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe. The place has a significant cultural and religious value, as it houses a small church on the top of the hill. The climb to reach the church involves walking through a narrow stone path over the sea and ascending 241 steps. Historical records suggest that the place may have been used by hermit monks in the past. The view from the church is stunning, offering a panoramic view of the Bay of Biscay. I found this place to be one of the most serene and spiritual places I have ever visited.
