Mirador del Santuario
The first stop is at the marvelous viewpoint Mirador del Santuario where the statue of the patroness of the city, Virgen de la Montaña, is located. After which we drove to Casar de Cáceres, which is the town I was actually staying at just a few kms away from the city.

A pit stop to eat huevos rotos con gulas before touring Casco Antiguo…
