Walk through some spectacular landscapes, feel the aroma of lavender and learn about the production of natural essences, a tradition that goes back centuries in the region
The production of essences in Els Ports dates back several centuries, and was carried out as a way of supplementing the family economy. Under an old Arab bridge, with cauldrons and fire, the residents of La Todolella boiled the plants to obtain their essence.
