León

León can be seen in 2 days: the Gothic Cathedral, famous for its stained-glass windows, and the Barrio Húmedo (the epicenter of free tapas with every drink) shape the visit. May-September brings the most pleasant weather in the Castile-León interior. Prices are among the lowest of Spain's historic cities. Its Barrio Húmedo keeps alive the tradition of the free tapa, increasingly rare elsewhere in the country, making a night out in León a cheap way to eat well.
