Extremadura, whatever its
meaning is one of Spain's poorest regions. It is also full of charm,
beauty and history. The town of Guadalupe, from where Columbus set out
for America and where he returned to pay tribute for his success; still is a place of pilgrimage and rather quaint. The Parador is quite
perfect for a romantic break and there do not seem to be any American
tourists, just Spanish pilgrims and brides... There remain tiny
villages which time seems to have passed by and towns and monuments which
always remind you of their conquistador heritage.
