En route to Portugal we encountered El Rocio a real cowboy town, every house, bar and church has a hitching post and the bars have high level tables so you can sit on your horse and have a drink (get on your horse and drink your milk), a really unique place. A ghost town when we visited in the week but at the weekend it explodes with cowboys and cowgirls on horseback and wagons. In July they hold a festival that over 1 million people attend. It's not a gimmick town for people to dress up and play cowboys they actually are cowboys.
All the roads are sand.
