Spanish World Heritage Treasure City: Extremadura

Extremadura region is located in the west of Spain. Although low-key, the number, scale, and value of its historical sites are among the top in Spain. It has three World Heritage Sites and is also a famous bird-watching tourist destination in Europe. Spain has a total of 15 World Heritage Cities, and Mérida (Mérida, P1-P3) and Cáceres (Cáceres, P4-P6), the capitals of Extremadura, account for 2. The ancient Roman theater and amphitheater in Mérida are still performing classic dramas, and Cáceres is one of the best-preserved ancient cities in Spain and even Europe. Its history can be traced back to the Old Stone Age in 20,000 BC. In addition to historical sites, this place is also one of the producing areas of Iberian ham (Jamón bérico, P7-P9). Iberian ham can be described as a Mediterranean delicacy, with its fat and lean, soft and resilient meat. Whether it's lunch or dinner, there's always a large plate of Iberian ham on the Spaniards' table. It has become an unmissable Mediterranean delicacy!
