Obradoiro Square image

Obradoiro Square
Historical landmark
👍👍 La plaza es fantástica, es inolvidable entrar en la plaza y ver la fabulosa fachada de la catedral. Por dentro es un lugar increíble, lleno de historia, lo único que no me gustó fue que antes era gratis visitar toda la catedral, las catacumbas...todo.... Y ahora te piden dinero por ver cada cosa .

Porch of the Glory
Church
😠 The cathedral is great, BUT: we came from Germany to see Santiago de Compostela and a part of it is Pórtico de la Gloria. The website did not allow to book two weeks in advance. We called at least ten times two different landlines and tried the same on a given mobile number. No one in none of them...

Senda do río Sar
Hiking area
👍👍 Senderos como este hacen que valga la pena vivir en Santiago de Compostela. Es la naturaleza muy cerca del centro de la ciudad. Con razón Rosalía de Castro le dedico todo un libro de poesías, "En las orillas del Sar". Hay de todo: puentes, bosque, senderos de madera, de piedra, canales con agua.
