As the excess over the Internet is documentation, I do not lengthen much concrete detail, and try to be brief, so I'll start putting some photos of the Which, incidentally, in Cantabria, the only beach where I was bathed in quotes, as in Santander, I was on the beach but without bathing:

Another characteristic place of Comillas, and sure you indicate in the Office of Tourism, is the Capricho de Gaudi building custom built by Maximo Diaz de Quijano, brother of the Marquis of Comillas, near Sobrellano Palace, residence of the latter .

The order was carried out in 1883 by the famous architect Antoni Gaudí, who endowed him with a certain oriental touch and the original purpose of being a summer residence, but is now a restaurant.
