Visit Santiago de Compostela

A beautiful place full of history and tradition. A must for those seeking a destination that delivers tradition, history , nature and gastronomy Visit the cathedral and the Old Quarter. Listen to " La Tuna" late in the main square and eat in one of the many restaurants along the old pebbled streets. Just beautiful!

I really enjoyed all the great places to eat and the shops. Didn’t have enough time to shop as I would have liked. The accommodations were in a great location, primitive but clean, comfortable and fairly priced

A great place to move around for people who are into history, culture and food. I was lucky enough to be in during the market day and what an interesting selection of produce the market has to offer everyone! Abastos 2.0 is definitely worth a visit.

Santiago de Compostela is the perfect destination for those who want to slow down, be in the moment, and embrace peace and silence. The city is filled with wonderful churches, many of which play soft, relaxing music all day, creating an atmosphere of tranquility that soothes the soul. One of the best things about Santiago is its historic center, which is almost entirely pedestrianized and covered with miles of beautiful arcades. No matter the weather, strolling through these ancient streets is a true pleasure—you can wander for hours, soaking in the history, admiring the stunning stone buildings, and simply enjoying the peaceful rhythm of the city. The people are genuinely friendly, and the city is filled with pilgrims of all ages, bringing an inspiring sense of journey and purpose. The food is delicious and affordable, the wine is excellent, and the tempting sweets are everywhere—it’s impossible to resist! The only downside is that there are no early morning buses from the city center to the airport, so if you have an early flight, you’ll need to take a taxi, which costs around €26. Also, a heads-up—local buses don’t accept credit cards, and many small shops don’t either. I wasn’t carrying any cash, but I was incredibly lucky to meet a kindhearted couple who generously paid my bus fare from the airport to the city. God bless them! Overall, Santiago de Compostela is a city that invites you to slow down, reflect, and immerse yourself in its peaceful, historic charm. A truly unforgettable place!

If you are into Catholicism and fascinated by 11 century cathedral this is for you. Santiago de Compostela is the center of Camino de Compostela way from Portugal, Paris . It is amazing to see this town on the north Spain that still standing with this amazing building. Happy I accomplished this in my lifetime.

Loved walking around the old town and the outside of the Cathedral is amazing. We stayed for 3 days and saw everything that we wanted to see. Lots of great places to eat and reasonable prices. It is slightly hilly but that suited us.
