The Vía de la Plata, as it passes through Monesterio, especially in the La Dehesa area, offers one of the most beautiful and representative stretches of the Extremadura landscape: a Mediterranean pastureland, with holm oaks, cork oaks, and pastures where Iberian pigs, cows, and sheep graze.

The Parador de Zafra is located in what was once the palace of the Dukes of Feria. The building clearly reflects its long and rich history, which includes the Extremaduran explorer Hernán Cortés, a distinguished guest of the palace. The Parador preserves beautiful coffered ceilings, chests, ironwork, handrails, and decorative elements from the former palace.

A visit is not possible because it is a hotel. The patio/inner courtyard, which is worth seeing, can be visited. And if you want to spend more time here, you can take a break in the café.
