Among the most characteristic trailers you will find is the ball (traditionally blue and white) which is said to have been born in this population and is so-called because in the past the thread with which it was woven was sold in small balls. The chin which is traditionally brown. The open knit fabric with blue, white, black and brown threads and the dove in black and white.



Santa María del Rio still has many old buildings in the city center. Most notable is the 18th century parish dedicated to the Virgin of the Assumption and the Franciscan convent with its sundial. The square is the main meeting place where the locals sit in the afternoon to talk in the shade of the trees. In the vicinity of the population, there are a large number of fruit and vegetable gardens, which make this place a true garden amidst a bumpy locksmith.
