Cáceres is a city in western Spain's Extremadura region. Founded by the ancient Romans, Caceres retains widespread evidence of subsequent occupation by many different cultures. Caceres old town, Ciudad Monumental, has a mix of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, with cobbled medieval streets, fortified houses and palaces. Encircled by 12th-century Moorish walls, it also has around 30 towers, some occupied by nesting storks.

Caceres is the capital of Cáceres province, in the autonomous community of Extremadura, Spain. The walled city has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

There have been settlements near Cáceres since prehistoric times. Evidence of this can be found in the caves of Maltravieso and El Conejar. The city was founded by the Romans in 25 BC. The Old Town (Parte Antigua) still has its ancient walls; this part of town is also well known for its multitude of storks' nests. The walls contain a medieval town setting with no outward signs of modernity, which is why many television shows and films have been shot there . The Universidad de Extremadura, and two astronomical observatories are situated in Cáceres. The city is also a seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Coria-Cáceres. Cáceres was declared a World Heritage City by UNESCO in 1986 because of the city's blend of Roman, Moorish, Northern Gothic and Italian Renaissance architecture. Thirty towers from the Islamic period still stand in Cáceres, of which the Torre del Bujaco is the most famous.

Cáceres - A true Spain experience

In this video I travel to Cáceres in Extremadura to see if I can get a true Spain experience and I am not let down. This is one of my favourite places in Spain and well worth checking out should you be planning to live in Spain or visit Spain. Walking around its medieval streets is like taking a step back in time. No wonder Game of Thrones chose it as a place to film some of the series.
