Teave
Kiired faktid: The Cathedral of Santiago holds the tomb of the apostle James, one of the most important pilgrimage destinations in the Christian world. More than 300 thousand pilgrims arrive on foot every year to embrace the statue of the saint.
Esiletõstmised: Inside, the Botafumeiro, an enormous 80-kilogram censer, flies over the heads of the faithful during solemn masses. Seeing this silver ball cross the central nave at 70 km/h is a spectacle that makes the ground tremble.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Dress in layers: inside the cathedral it is cold even in summer, but the sun warms you up quickly in the square.
- The best angle to photograph the facade is at dusk, from the right side of the Praza do Obradoiro.
- Avoid the 11am to 2pm time slot, when the tour buses arrive and the nave gets crowded.
- Go up to the cathedral rooftop for a panoramic view of the city and the baroque towers.

Kas oled kuulnud tasuta jalutuskäikudest?
Pärast reisimist üle 30 riigi on üks asi, mida sooviksin, et keegi oleks mulle esimesest päevast peale öelnud, ja see muutis täielikult minu linnakogemust.
Tasuta jalutuskäigud. Jah, tõesti tasuta. Kaarti ei ole vaja. Püüniseid pole.
Kohalik giid, 2-3 tundi
Peamised vaatamisväärsused, peidetud pärlid, kohalikud lood
100% jootraha põhine
Giidid teenivad ainult jootraha, seega annavad nad parima
Sa annad jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Lõpus annad lihtsalt jootraha nii palju kui tunned õigeks
Olen neid teinud paljudes linnades ja need on olnud peaaegu iga reisi tipphetk. Kui külastad Santiago de Compostela, Spain, tee seda esimesel päeval. Sa tänad mind hiljem.
