<h2><strong>Leisure</strong></h2>
<p>Hiking, horse riding, strolling through the country side, this area has so much to offer. And do not hesitate to join the local festivities, the feria&#8217;s and the romeria&#8217;s. The town itself has lots of historic places to visit and so has Jerez. The bodega&#8217;s and the flamenco nights in the town of Jerez are famous all over the world. The yearly flamenco festival attracts performers and visitors from all over the world.</p>
