Overview
This tour is the perfect way to introduce us to the fascinating history of Santiago de Compostela, letting us be surrounded by its monuments, churches, palaces and monasteries. We will begin our walk in the famous Plaza do Obradoiro, located between all the powers that have erected and governed the city for centuries: the imposing Cathedral, the destination of tens of thousands of pilgrims every year; the Pazo de Raxoi, seat of the Compostela City Council; and the Pazo de San Xerome, rectorate of the University.
Then we will immerse ourselves in the millenary streets of the historic center to learn everything that the ancient stones of Compostela hide, in whose origins History and legend intermingle. Our path will take us through places such as the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos, the San Martín Pinario Monastery, the Quintana and Cervantes squares, and the second most visited place in the city: the Mercado de Abastos. We will leave the old area through Porta Faxeira, and, after passing by the 2 Marías, we will enjoy one of the best views of Compostela from the Alameda viewpoint.
