You will contemplate the great austerity with which the Franciscans lived in the sixteenth century, their cells, kitchen, refectory and cloister of one square meter, all in a beautiful place isolated from civilization.

We will continue to Cáparra, an ancient Roman city along the Via de la Plata, where a 4-meter high tetrapill arch is preserved next to the vestiges of what was a reference on the route that linked the north and south of the Iberian Peninsula.

The next stop will be Granadilla, a village abandoned in the 50's because the swamp Gabriel and Galán flooded their farmland and is currently rebuilt. You will visit a circular walled village, with a castle perfectly preserved and being currently a peninsula - since the only way to access is a road full of pines and deer - from inside the beautiful village rehabilitated gives the feeling of being surrounded by water By an immense swamp and it implies a singular beauty to a place outside the tourist circuits but of those that surely you will remember when you speak of Extremadura.
