A colourful corner in Miranda de Castañar, Salamanca Province. Fond memories of an enjoyable holiday in La Sierra de Francia in 2016, full of the most delightful villages and scenery.

A very attractive village in the Sierra de Francia.
You can see some of the 600 or so portraits on the walls. These were the residents in 1967 who were photogrphed for an album and who later agreed to have their images placed on the houses / flats where they lived at that time. Some say 'spooky!', others say 'what a great idea!'
I am in two minds, but it IS different!

Miranda Del Castañar, Salamanca Province.

A quiet corner. By the side of the church I think.

Street scene, a village (possibly La Alberca) in Salamanca Province.

This could be one of several attractive villages we visited two or three summers ago on a two week touring holiday but since Google stole my notes as well as photos, I can't now remember so I will choose one and say it is La Alberca (and I think I'm right!)

There are many paths that go under houses in these villages.

Salamanca, Plaza Mayor.

Apparently the largest Plaza Mayor in all Spain.

La Alberca, Sierra de Francia, Salamanca Province. This could be 300 years old or 75 years old. Maybe a bit of both!

In Penzance this alley's equivalent is called Squeeze-guts Alley. In Miranda-del-Castañar it probably also has a name. Sancho Panza wouldn't appreciate this!

She's seen a for sale sign. She will have to investigate!

Part of her long-running plan to move out of Madrid and into the country. She needs to sell her piece of land first! I have no idea which village this is! They are all nice and all pretty similar and Google stole my notes when they knifed Pano in the back. I'm guessing Candelario (which is in the Sierra de Bejar) but could be miles out!

A pleasing village but on a steep hill. The high street just goes up and up and up ...

Once Google killed off Panoramio, I have lost my notes on my older photos and as I didn't have GPS on my old cameras and mobile phones, this has become guesswork in many cases! Another possiblility is Candelario, and yet another is Mirandar del Castañar.
Salamanca Province anyway!

Roof and view. Taken from the loo window of a delightful café.
