This past summer, we enjoyed visiting Santiago de Compostela, the beautiful capital of Galicia. In 1985, the entire city was declared a World Heritage Site. The Plaza del Obradoiro is a masterpiece of Medieval and Renaissance architecture. In the early 9th century, it became a center of Christian pilgrimage. According to tradition, the remains of St. James were discovered in a tomb near Santiago. The relics are preserved in a crypt under the altar of the cathedral.
The Parador was built for the international pilgrims by the Catholic Kings, Ferdinand and Isabella at the end of the 15th century. Today it is an elegant lodging for pilgrims and visitors alike.
