Spain is a country rich in many heritage buildings. In fact Spain is one of the countries which have the highest number of World heritage buildings as declared by UNESCO. Another interesting fact is that these buildings have been maintained perfectly well. It is not only the buildings; even the places surrounding them are maintained in perfect order.

Caceres is one such city in the province of Extremadura which has great historical importance. This city has a history dating prior to Romans. Today this is one of the very well planned cities of Spain. Even in the midst of this modernity, the heritage buildings, towers, churches have been well retained in splendor and are in fact attractions for tourists.

Let us just take a tour of the city. We start our tour with a visit to the fort. Interestingly this fort has thirty towers. Out of these thirty towers, twelve are believed to have been built in the 18th century by Churriguera. The towers are built with immaculate planning. It takes considerable time to go round all these thirty towers but some of the important towers should be visited.

Our next visit is to the Episcopal Palace which is built in traditional Gothic and renaissance architecture. This beautiful building has been attracting a large number of visitors. The palace of interest is the Gothic Mayoralgo Palace. The beauty of the palace is enhanced by the flagstone streets, La Plata tower, El Socorro Archl and such other towers. Many other historic buildings located just near the palace have actually beautified the palace.

The House of Monkeys called the Casa del mono has many ancient painting works. There are also works of sculpture and religions. The interesting feature of this museum is that the monuments are hidden inside the wall. In fact the sculpture works displayed in Spain have no parallel. Popular works of sculpture also adorn this museum.
