Carlos: Wow, María, this route among the centennial oak trees is incredibly impressive! María: You're right! I had never seen such ancient trees. It's as if time has stopped here. Carlos: That's right. These oaks must be hundreds of years old. Their twisted trunks and lush leaves make us feel like we're in another world. María: And that light filtering through the leaves is simply magical. No wonder this place is so well known for its natural beauty. Carlos: Plus, the fresh air and the scent of earth and moss make this walk even more enjoyable. It's as if we're in perfect harmony with nature. María: Yes, I'm definitely glad we chose to explore this route instead of staying home. Carlos: Without a doubt. Sometimes, we just need to disconnect and surround ourselves with the tranquility of nature. And these thousand-year-old oaks offer us exactly that. María: Exactly! Let's savor every moment here!

I'll be right with you...
