 Caceres by Paul2001
The old walled town of Caceres consists of many old medieval and Renaissance palaces and churches. Not all of the churches are open for inspection but try you luck. The old town itself is so well preserved that it is often used by Hollywood for films set in medieval towns.
As I have said few foriegn tourist travel to Caceres. This is not the case for the Spanish. I arrived in Caceres at about noon on a Saturday and most of the hotels were booked up already. I found a vacancy on my third try and it was booked up by 5pm. So arrive early if you are visiting on a weekend or book ahead.
Caceres is about 310 kilometers southwest of Madrid. If driving through Spain it is very easy to swing by this way if you already on your way to Caceres. It is well worth the effort if you want a taste of old Spain. Leave a Comment

 Classic valley by iandsmith
I remember vividly looking at a classic U-shaped valley scoured by glaciers in the last ice age and thinking how wonderful it would be to wander down there - if only time had permitted.
Set in the Pyrenees, you'll probably be going through a tunnel to get there though the way we went out featured wonderful scenery, albeit on a slow windy road with frequent stops for cows. Leave a Comment

 Wilderness by iandsmith
Twisting up from France through the cultivated fields then suddenly encountering nothing but forest for kilometre after kilometre on little-trafficked roads before returning to civilization on the lower slopes in Spain. Then, turning into the mountains again and working your way through limestone tunnels, past cows, above rushing snow-fed streams, catching glimpses of greater peaks beyond and all backdropped by autumn colours. I loved it. Leave a Comment

Pontevedra is located 60 km far from Santiago de Compostela.
One of its highlights is the Museo Provincial. This is located inside two 18th century mansions and has a large collection of various things; ancient remains, paintings by Goya and Zurbarān and various other things. Leave a Comment
