A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this city's unique blend of Roman, Islamic, Gothic and Italian Renaissance architecture was built up over its 2,000 year history. The thick stone walls surrounding the city date back to medieval times, while the winding streets and public squares of its Old Town are almost 1,000 years old. The Plaza Mayor, the city's finest public square, lies at the heart of one of Spain's most fascinating cities. Impressive cathedrals, mansions, towers and museums dominate this historic city center. Be sure to try the locally-made cherry liquors, sheep cheeses and salt-cured hams from artisan shops sprinkled throughout.
