The Shell House is perhaps the best secret tourist magnetism in this town. The house is owned by Manuel Fulleda Alcaraz, who did some decoration of his house with patterns of shells, tiles and mirrors. Creativity and artistry can be the best description of the owner. It’s pretty impressive to see this piece of art. This art shows the evidence of endurance and persistence of an artist.

The Azud is a stone dam that dates back from the 16th century and still currently in working order. It is primarily used for collecting and stocking water of the river to be used in irrigations passing from irrigation trenches and to the water wheel. The Gasparito Wells were created way back 1920’s, these two wells are done out from the mountain sandstone and were created and intended to gather and store rainwater to provide the surrounding village daily water supply. Water merchants used to visit the wells everyday and stock up with containers with full of water then return to their villages where they could earn a living by selling this to their neighbors. The West Well is now in a display gallery and to this day the East Well is still operational and continuously serving water to the town.
