With the passage of time, other neighboring towns such as Sarnago, Las Fuentes de San Pedro, Matasejún, Palacio de San Pedro, Taniñe, Valdenegrillos and Ventosa de San Pedro have been incorporated into the municipal area. San Pedro Manrique is well known for his particular way of celebrating San Juan Day. On the night of San Juan the well-known "paso del fuego" is carried out, in which the embers of a bonfire are stepped on by the town's natives, barefoot and carrying someone on their backs. Among its heritage, the hermitage of the Virgen de la Peña, the church of San Miguel, the remains of a castle on the outskirts and the ruins of the convent of San Pedro el Viejo stand out.

The small town of Aldealseñor is home to two impressive heritage gems. On the one hand, there is the Romanesque church of Nuestra Señora de la Blanca, on the other the spectacular palace-tower, built between the 14th and 16th centuries.
