Other places worth the walk, and what each one costs.
A workers' housing quarter built by the British Rio Tinto mining company in English garden-city style, unique in Spain. Free to walk through, the rows of cottages with pitched roofs and small gardens feel transplanted from an English village.
A 19th-century iron mineral-loading pier designed by the same firm that built the Eiffel Tower, stretching into the estuary. Free to view from the promenade, it is an industrial monument with a striking silhouette at sunset.
