Béjar
Béjar is a small town in Salamanca province whose historical identity was shaped by a once-thriving textile manufacturing industry. It serves as the main centre for the Sierra de Béjar comarca in southeastern Salamanca, with a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size. The wider region sits close to mountain terrain, and Salamanca city — with its UNESCO-listed old town — lies within reach.
