概要
クイックファクト: Shrouded in the aroma of incense, the interior is filled with pilgrims, with the echoes of footsteps and whispers lending the place a ritualistic character. The enormous censer weighs around 80 kilograms and can swing in an arc of nearly 20 meters, a spectacle that always impresses visitors.
見どころ: During selected masses, a giant thurible called the Botafumeiro is launched from the choir loft. Weighing approximately 80 kilograms and operated by eight tiraboleiros, it swings to a height of nearly 20 meters, filling the nave with dense, resinous smoke and the sound of ropes creaking. After this spectacle, hundreds of pilgrims line up for the Pilgrim's Mass to kneel at the silver coffin of Saint James or embrace the painted shell, feeling the cool stone and the sweet scent of incense in their hair.
インサイダーヒント
- Wear comfortable shoes as exploring the vast interiors involves a good deal of walking.
- See the Botafumeiro during the Pilgrim's Mass, usually held at noon.
- Bring a camera for the facade, but be discreet inside to respect worshippers.
- Avoid weekends, as local pilgrims add to the crowds.
