Almagro
Known for its remarkably preserved 16th-century Corral de Comedias (one of the oldest open-air theaters in Europe), Almagro is a charming small town that seems frozen in Spain's Golden Age. The Plaza Mayor, surrounded by green-framed balconies and elegant colonnades, is the perfect setting for the annual International Classical Theater Festival that celebrates Spain's rich theatrical heritage.
