The Alcázar Gate in Ciudad Rodrigo is one of the historic entrances to the city walls and has great heritage and scenic value. It was opened in 1507 by Antonio del Águila, warden of the Alcázar, when he built the defensive barrier in that area. It is located next to the Castle of Henry II of Trastámara, in the section of the wall facing the Águeda River, known as the Battery, due to the cannons that were once installed there.

It's well worth a visit: it combines history, architecture, and excellent cuisine. It's a beautifully preserved walled city with cobblestone streets and a charming old town. Perfect for exploring on foot in one day, although if you want to enjoy it at a more leisurely pace and explore the surrounding area, two days are ideal.

Ciudad Rodrigo is one of the most beautiful towns in Spain, located in the province of Salamanca, very close to the Portuguese border. Declared a Historic-Artistic Site in 1944, it stands out for its impressive heritage, its history linked to battles between Castile and Portugal, and its welcoming atmosphere. It's ideal for a cultural and gastronomic getaway.

The Silver Route (Vía Verde de la Plata) in the Port of Béjar is part of the old Astorga–Plasencia railway line, now a nature trail for hiking and cycling. Don't miss the Little Station: a bar/restaurant in the old station, with a terrace and railway atmosphere (open during tourist season).
