El Camino – Santiago de Compostela – What to See/Do
I fully fell in love with this city in no time. The beautiful architecture, amazing Galician food, the whole vibe of happy pilgrims from all over the world… It’s one of the cities I instantly felt connected to and felt like I don’t want to leave anymore.There are some really good pages and blogs about what to do and see in Santiago with lots of details and history, one of them www.santiagoturismo.com. I’ll try to summarise it for you here to give you a bit of an overview. Make sure you do your research beforehand because there’s really a LOT to see! And do take out enough time to stay in Santiago. Around 3 days are definitely needed to really enjoy it without haste. There are so many things to see, do and most of all EAT, that it would be way too hectic otherwise.
There are lots of monuments, museums, parks and gardens, contemporary architecture, art galleries, exhibition halls and viewpoints that it would be way too much for me to go into detail. Check out the above mentioned page of Santiago Turismo for all the details.
Here the most important ones.

Camino de Santiago from Arzúa to A Ruá: A Pilgrim’s Diary (5)
The route on day 5 was again not very exhausting. Only 19 km till A Ruá with a few hills. Lush green fields, eucalyptus forests, passing beautiful old towns and the obligatory hórreos. There are a lot of pilgrims who walk the 39 km till Santiago in one go but definitely not amateur pilgrims like us!
