Information
Real State
Zamora is not a central and coastal region and remoted from Madrid by 220 kilometers. Therefore, among the local population the region is considered provincial. This is facilitated by the location and the established cultural and historical traditions. On the other hand - all this contributes to affordable prices for living space. Offers are found in all price categories.
Sale and lease of apartments in Zamora is the most affordable option to become the owner of Spanish housing. A small apartment or room in the secondary housing market can be purchased for only 10-20 thousand euros. However, this is a very miniature housing with area of 30-40 square meters, usually requiring repair. But from 40-50 thousand euros you can find more interesting offers - with furniture and repairs.
Sale and lease of apartments from 80-90 thousand euros is a completely different conversation. For this money, you can count on a comfortable and furnished accommodation in a new building, a duplex and even a small townhouse within the city limits. But the prices for most apartments in new buildings and townhouses start somewhere from 150 thousand euros.
Sale and lease of houses in Zamora is also presented quite well - from inexpensive to elite offers. The most budgetary options are small old town houses for 40-50 thousand euros. Most of them initially are not residential and require repair and re-planning.
It is quite possible to find a small furnished house with a garage and a well-organized territory for 80-90 thousand euros. If you dream of your own villa, then be ready to spend more - from 230-250 thousand euros.

Transport
There are no airports on the territory of the province, so you will have to get to Zamora by train or bus. However, in view of good infrastructure of the region and Spain as a whole, this is not a problem.
Twice a day a train passes through Zamora, linking Madrid and Vigo. There is also a railway service to Valladolid. The train journey from Madrid takes about two and a half hours; the ticket price is 15 euros. You can get to Valladolid in one and a half hours and at a price of 10 euros.
Two major highways also passes through Zamora. One links Barcelona and Porto, the second - Seville and Gijon. There are several dozen suburban routes, covering almost all the settlements of the province.
Seven routes represent internal urban transport.
Attractions
The main attractions of the region are the cathedrals and churches that have been preserved since the Middle Ages. Be sure to visit the local churches of Saints Anthony, Cyprian, Isidore, Vikenty, Mary Magdalene and others.
But if walks and sightseeing of historical sites can be made independently, then it is better to go to numerous museums of the city, armed at least with a guide. We recommend you to visit the Museum of Sid, the Museum of Holy Week, the Museum of Archeology, and the Museum of Fine Arts.
Of course, do not forget to try local cuisine, which is famous for its game, mushrooms and delicate custard desserts. Also, try the famous zamorian cheese made of sheep's milk.
