Extremadura


Spain Week in July

Extremadura is a region and autonomous community in west-central SPAIN, bordering Portugal. Autonomous communities are first-level administrative divisions in Spain which have a sense of autonomy in the country's decentralized unitary political structure. The capital is Mérida, and other cities include Badajoz, Cáceres, Don Benito, and Plasencia. Extremadura's total population is 1,097,744 (as of 2009), and Extremadura is the 5th largest-in-area autonomous community in Spain. Monasterio de Yusta is a famous monastery in northeast Extremadura.
