    The most well-known tourist attraction of the city are the Hanging Houses, an example of typical architecture in Cuenca, where the balconies invite you to simply observe the abyss. They have become the watchword and signal of the city. Other example of this local architecture are the Skyscrapers of San Martin, the first ten-floor buildings of the world

    Inside the emblematic Hanging Houses we will find one of the most significant artistic exhibitions from the middle 20th century: The Museum of Abstract Art. This museum showcases hundreds of pictures and sculptures from the abstract generation of the fifties and the sixties, which continues, in a certain way, the innovative ideas of Picasso, Miró and Gris. One can enjoy Art works made by Canogar, Chillida, Feito, Millares, Oteiza, Tapies, Torner and Zóbel.
