aa
Near the south of France,
the northern beaches of Girona,
just behind the main roads, 
find another Alt Empordà.
 
Plenum of silent sensations.
 
Just step away of that's important,
a thousand million kilometers away
from that's urgent.
the Alta Garrotxa
 
Covered by a mantle
dense and full of forest.
Its historical occupation
confers a dense and
extensive
cultural patrimony on it,
with great amount of legends.
the Cap de Creus
 
Of relief fraction with
ravines and mountains, in
good part surrounded with
sea. It highlights the diversity
and wealth of its vegetal
patrimony. And Cadaqués
him woman an only
artistic aspect.
the Aspres
 
Zone of transition among
the plain from Empordà
and the Albera and the Salines.
 Him where the farming of
vineyard and olive tree more
representative are found and,

The 7 landscapes of the Alt Empordà
 
The Alt Empordà has seven characterized portions of territory for a portion specific to landscape components
of environmental, cultural, perceptive and symbolic nature, which confer
an idiosyncrasy differentiated from the rest of the territory on it.

 mmmmmmm
the Garrotxa of Empordà
 
Forest in a basic way, it forms
a mosaic of fields and stains
of forest highly harmonic.
The Canonics of Santa María
de Lladó, of an extraordinary
sumptuousness, completes
a good historical value.
the Plain of the Empordà 

Open directly in the sea,
farming surrounded with
fences of cypress and hamlets
presided over by belfries
is characterized.
The intense occupation has
translated into an important
historical and artistic legacy
(Grecoroman beds and
Romanesque
and Gothic architecture).
Salines - the Albera
 
Formed by a combination of 
forests, its disposition replies
to orographic and climatic
characteristics. And, especially
 him a place where the myths
mingle with the reality
(with many routes used
by smugglers).
The Monastery of Sant Quirze
de Colera rounds
the spirituality.
Terraprims

Wooded zones that
 are alternated with farming
in a very harmonic way,
softly.
They accompany this so
balanced landscape,
several rural kernels of
small dimensions and
homesteads, which have
just shaped a
bucolic character.
