Entrena is located in the north of   La Rioja.
There are about 4 bars and a civic center for children under 16.

There are 4 parks in total, one that is giant that has  got a skate  ring, tennis courts and more and then the other 3 that are smaller that have swings, slides, etc ...
There is also a school in the center of town, it is quite large, it has two floors and two patios, one for infant children and another larger patio for primary school.

In my town there are various celebrations, such as: San Blas, San Isidro, La romeria de la Hermedaña, San Cristobal, Santa Ana, San Martín ...

I love my town because it is very cozy and you have many places to go because there is also a lot of countryside around and you have a great time with friends hanging around the countryside and the mountains.
The history of Entrena probably begins in the second half of the 10th century. The archeology of the place and the documents preserved thus remind us of this. ... 1044 is the year in which our town appears for the first time and it does so in the Romance form of ANTELENA.

Notes:

Hello everybody!
Today I am going to write a little information about my town, called Ribafrecha.
Ribafrecha is a small village located in the north of La Rioja, in Spain.
It has an area of ​​34.58 km², and it also has approximately 980 inhabitants.
There are a few parks, but there are many bars, there is also a school in which there is only up to sixth grade, so children have to change to another school to start ESO, and there are quite large pools, too.
There is also a very nice church and a hermitage.
In Ribafrecha there is an important place, called El Mirador, where there is a monument called the Lady of Leza, and where you can go to enjoy the views of the whole town. There is a path to reach the Leza bridge, where you can take a walk and look at nature, too.
On August 21st the most important festivals of my town are celebrated, the festivities of San Bartolome, in which several food stands and inflatables come. We can also go to see the heifers, and go to taste food. But what I like the most is the costume festival, where people come with the costume they have prepared to get a prize, and I really like the fire bull, too.
I  like my town because you can go to a lot of places and enjoy the nature.
Natalia Bucurescu.
Any important person from the past?
It's very good!

Hello everybody!
Today I’m writing a little bit about my grandmother’s village called Agoncillo. 
Agoncillo is a small town located in the north of Spain, in the middle of La Rioja district. There are 1102 habitants  INHABITANTS and it’s very well located because it has a highway exit, a rail stop and an airport.
The church of “Nuestra Señora de la Blanca” is very beautiful and old. It was declared a National Artistic Historical Monument. There is also a castle, “el Castillo de Aguas Mansas”, which was occupied by the NavarrE King Carlos II. It’s from the XII-XIV century and it was declared a National Artistic Historical Monument too.
People can also visit a Roman bridge over the Leza river (declared a National Artistic Historical Monument too), the Würth Museum, the Hermitage of "Nuestra Señora de los Dolores" and the Roman remains of "Velilla de Aracanta".
There are also parks, swimming pools, three bars and two restaurants. There is a kindergarten, a school, a sports centre and a gym too.
The main festivities are held on August in honor to  OF the Virgin and San Roque. Nevertheless, the first weekend of September the festivities of San Roquillo are also celebrated.
I like Agoncillo because it's a very quiet town and once a year the castle opens so that people can visit it.
Elena Blanco.
VERY GOOD!

Revise it and add also and too at least two more times]]> 2020-05-12 08:25:07 UTC https://padlet.com/gbm/6mh173mxz32m87w9/wish/566874012 ALBELDA DE IREGUA 184444 https://padlet.com/gbm/6mh173mxz32m87w9/wish/566934021 Hello everybody, here’s some info about my village, Albelda de Iregua.
Albelda is a medium-sized village located at  in the north centre of La Rioja, which is a small autonomous community located at in  the north of Spain, as you everybody knows. There are 3.446 inhabitants here in my village.
If you come here you could visit a big church and three old hermitages too. In Albelda you can also visit the monastery of San Martín that is located over “la peña”, and that today is in ruins (although, there are some parts of it that are still standing up and are fairly well preserved). In this monastery the monks Vigila, Sarracino and García wrote the “Códice Albendense”Codex Albeldensis which is located in “El Escorial”, Madrid. A detail of interest to highlight is that in this codex is the oldest record that is preserved in the world where the nine Hindu-Arabic figures or numbers are written from left to right. Apart from that places, in Albelda you could also see two big parks, three swimming pools (a climatized pool and two usual ones), a skate park, a sports centre, a few bars, some shops, a library, a kindergarten and two schools (a children's school and a primary school).
Some famous people from Albelda are Javier Cámara, which is an actor, and, Carlos Coloma, which is  an Olympic mountain biker who won a bronze medal at the Rio Olympic Games.
At the end of April, we celebrate the “fiestas  festival of San Prudencio”, one of our  Saint patrons, and also at the end of August we celebrate the “fiestas of San Martín”, which is our other important patron.
And, that’s almost all about my village, Albelda de Iregua! I hope you all would come  to visit visiting it. I feel very happy and proud of living here because it’s an amazing place and its people is better.fantastic

Hello everybody, here's some information about my uncle's city, Esmeraldas.

It is located 318 km from Quito (the capital of Ecuador).
 It has a population of 154,035 inhabitants in 2010. It is the eleventh most populous city in the country and one of the most important ports in Ecuador. Its coast, as well as its ecological reserves, make it one of the most visited tourist destinations in the country, enjoying a favorable temperature throughout the year. Its beaches and landscapes are the best, here it rests under the radiant sun, green landscape and the fresh blue of the sea too.

Let's talk about the history in Esmeralda!  There was a Spanish conquest, Bartolomé Ruiz was the first Spanish explorer who sailed the maritime space of what is now the coasts of Ecuador, landing in the north of what would later become known as the Land of Emeralds.
There also  was known as "land of the yumbos" who were considered to be wild and dangerous Indians.

Now I'm  talking about a beach that I literally fell in love with, it is called Playa de Atacames!

Its minimum temperature is 21 ºC and the maximum is 32 ºC.
Atacames is the largest natural beach in Ecuador and the closest to the capital, Quito; reason why the majority of the inhabitants of this city go here.
The city has a great nightlife, especially on weekends and during the holidays, there is a lot of dance clubs, which have served as a launch pad for the most recent hits of all kinds of music, salsa, merengue, reggaeton.

And  finally one "festival" celebrated in Esmeraldas was
the last year beacuse  began its festivities for its 199 years of political independence!
They were 5 days and they are celebrated in August, there were many dances and music!

I love this place because I think it's so beautiful and green!
I hope you liked!

Anahí  Machado Uvidia, 1st A.
I loved it!
I can't wait to visit Esmeraldas, it must be great.
But the point is tha you haven't written it and this is not what is good for you.
