You're standing at the monastery of San Millán de Yuso, in the little village of San Millán de la Cogolla in La Rioja. Yuso is old Castilian for 'lower'. That's no accident. Somewhere up the slope above you sits its older sister, San Millán de Suso, the 'upper' one. Together they've been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since December 1997.
