🫤 Unfulfilled ambition. Looks like little Santiago bit off more than it could chew with this project... the sloping City of Culture is elegant from afar and blends artfully with the Galician hills, but upon close examination the construction seems shoddy - loose, broken and missing tiles, empty exhib...

👍👍 Absolutely fantastic experience. The host was well mannered yet still funny and engaging. Badass magician too. Full of knowledge and has an excellent way of explaining things that he clearly has a passion for. 10 out of 5 stars. If you read this, go there. You won't regret it.

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...

👍👍 Such a great view of the city spreading out and below! You get a good sense of the city's size and can see a bit more of the buildings than you do just walking in the streets. This is a good sized park with paths, statues and eucalyptus trees from Australia. Take in the city from a bench here while...
