Vilaplana is a small town, also called a municipality, located in a region of Catalonia, Spain. It is part of the Baix Camp area, which is in the Tarragona province.
To the north of Vilaplana, you will find the Serra de la Mussara mountains. These mountains are part of the larger Prades Mountains. Interestingly, the mountains get their name from an old, empty village called La Mussara. This village is actually within Vilaplana's area.
The main church in Vilaplana is dedicated to Mare de Déu de la Llet. This name means "Mother of God of the Milk" and refers to the Virgin Mary as a mother.
