City in Spain

Jerez de la Frontera

3 things to see

Jerez is the home of sherry, flamenco, and Andalusian horses, with bodega tours and tapas at deep-south Andalusian prices. Wandering the old town and the cathedral square costs nothing, and the flamenco roots run deep enough that you can often catch live playing in the peñas and bars for the price of a drink. It pairs perfectly with nearby Cadiz and Seville for an Andalusian triangle. Spring and autumn keep the inland heat down and the room rates lower.
