Zafra is one of the most beautiful Spanish towns y Zafra is one of the most beautiful Spanish towns you probably haven’t heard of 🇪🇸

It’s situated between Seville and Merida, with a history dating back to the Roman period. There aren’t too many things to do in Zafra, but there’s enough to keep you busy for at least half a day! 

Do you like to visit smaller towns when you travel? 🫶🏼
