Here´s the second installment of photos from Oropesa while I finish working on my posts about amazing Mérida!
Oropesa´s clock tower in the main square
Roaming around the castle
Gardens surrounding the town´s parador
Word play!
Even though the day was overcast, locals lounged around the main square, chatting and laughing
Clock tower, take 2
The other side of these tiled benches listed the names of the town´s mayors
A shot from a friendly bar where we stopped to tomar algo
Adiós, Oropesa!
What an adorable town! Was it easy to get to Extremadura from Madrid? I have always wanted to visit, but sometimes public transport isn’t quite up to scratch and it’s easier to get around by car.
We actually rented a car for this adventure so I’m not sure. I do know that there are buses from Madrid to Extremadura, though! Do you think you’ll go some day?
