Chozas de Canales is a small farming village and municipality in the province of Toledo, part of the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha, Spain.
With improved road links from the national capital Madrid to the north, the village has doubled in size (1995–2005), with new chalets being built. The village now has a supermarket and a restaurant that opens in the evenings. But the old part of the village still has a feeling of going back in time with the good community spirit. The new chalets are essentially identical and modern and do not blend in with the old traditional village houses. The village centre still maintains its charm and tradition, but the new part looks like a giant council estate.
The village is built around the small chapel in the centre opposite the village square and with the church on the hill looking down. People in the village either commute to Madrid for work or are involved in farming. The village produces its own wine, Rocanales, from the Bodega Cooperativa Santa Maria Magdalena. Around the village is miles upon miles of farm land.

What people eat in Castilla-La Mancha when they eat well.
From Manchega sheep, with PDO; semi-cured or cured, never missing from the table.
Garden tomato, pepper and courgette, with a fried egg if you let yourself be spoiled.
The world's most expensive spice is harvested here by hand, flower by flower, every October.
Day-old bread, garlic and paprika; waste-not cooking that tastes of the countryside.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
We haven't confirmed Chozas de Canales's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
