Amazing Santiago de Compostela

by drvanessa - last update: Aug 28, 2008

Visiting the Cathedral

People gathering to Cathedral to celebrate the day
I was lucky to be at Santiago de Compostela on the 25th of July this year.It's the day when all the pilgrims meet at the Cathedral and the day of St James is celebrated!
Visit the Cathedral, see the golden tomb of St James and then go to the nearby park where fiestas,fun parks and concerts are organised all at the same time to enjoy the day!
Essential souvenirs: "Conchas" with the cross and the Cathedral painting and "brugas" (witches) of every kind in order to imporve your life!Bruga de salud, amor,etc Amazing little staff!

Interesting "dolls" in the cathedral

The vast Cathedral square

It's a gran square where you can walk, enjoy the Cathedral view or simply watch the time go by.An excellent meeting point as well, right next to the multiple taps bars and the market of the city!
