Santiago de Compostela

For centuries, thousands of pilgrims have walked the Camino de Santiago every year with a dream to fulfil: to reach the capital of Galicia and enter its now mythical cathedral. Tradition has it that the remains of the apostle Santiago, discovered in the 9th century, are buried in this monument.

However, Santiago de Compostela is a lively city with many other reasons to dazzle the traveller, pilgrim or not: countless restaurants and bars in which to savour the exquisite seafood of Galicia, a historic centre declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, contemporary art proposals… There are many plans to do in this city that combines its history with a younger and more modern face.

A Bit of History

Huge beaches such as Carnota, O Rostro or Baldaio and landscapes that are well worth a photograph such as Monte Louro, the capes of Fisterra, Touriñán and Vilán or the Sisargas Islands await the traveller, who will find several viewpoints on his journey.

Art and Museums

In this beautiful city we can find museums such as the A Coruña Museum of Fine Arts, where you can enjoy paintings and works of the best Spanish artists. On the other hand, an interesting visit will be to the Clock Museum, one of the most popular places in the city of A Coruña.
