Things To Do
in Ejea de los Caballeros

Ejea holds a weekly market where local vegetables, cheeses and baked goods are sold — a good place to try seasonal produce and chat with vendors.

Evenings often bring bar-based tapas service around the main square; sample small plates like croquetas, chorizo and patatas bravas.

A brief handshake or a simple 'Hola' is common; be polite and use basic Spanish phrases — locals appreciate attempts to speak the language.

Daily life is relaxed; social meetings may be informal with flexible timing, but appointments and business meetings usually follow standard punctuality.

Dress casually but respectfully in town and when visiting churches; avoid loud or disruptive behavior in public spaces.

When visiting churches, speak quietly, avoid flash photography during services and dress modestly out of respect.

Tipping is appreciated but modest in Spain; in Ejea leave small change for café service or 5-10% in restaurants for attentive service. For taxis round up the fare or add a few euros.

Cash is still commonly used in small establishments, though most bars and restaurants accept cards. Always carry some euros for markets, small shops and rural services where card machines may be unreliable.

Mild temperatures, blooming fields and pleasant conditions for walking and photography; spring festivals and agricultural activity make it a lively time to visit.

Hot and dry during the day with strong sun — afternoons can be very warm (often 30°C/86°F or higher). Plan outdoor activities for mornings and evenings, carry water and sun protection, and expect quieter town days as locals sometimes rest during hottest hours.

Cooling temperatures, harvest season and comfortable weather for exploration; colors in the countryside and active rural markets are highlights.

Cool to cold weather with occasional frosts; snow is possible but not persistent. Indoor cultural visits and hearty Aragonese fare make winter visits cozy.

Vegetarian options are available but limited compared to big cities; look for salads, tortilla española, vegetable stews, and ask for vegetable-based tapas. Larger cafés and some restaurants will accommodate simple vegetarian requests if you explain them.

Vegan choices are more limited; bring snacks for flexibility. Ask for vegetable sides, grilled vegetables, tomato bread and beans — and check if broths or sauces contain animal products.

Gluten-free awareness is growing but still inconsistent in small towns. Ask staff about cross-contamination and focus on naturally gluten-free dishes like grilled meats, vegetables, rice and stews.

Specialty halal or kosher restaurants are unlikely in town; visitors requiring certified food should plan ahead, bring supplies, or travel to larger nearby cities for more options.
