Santiago de Compostela used to be a sacred city on the Medieval pilgrimage route known as the Way of St. James (to visit the tomb of the patron saint of Spain). You can still do so to this day. For the same reason, the Catedral de Santiago de Compostela is a very sacred monument. To say you can’t miss this imposing Gothic and Neoclassical building is an understatement. The Crypt of St. James is underneath the Baroque main altar. You can also visit Hostal de los Reyes Catolicos, the hostel for pilgrims built in 1499, or go hiking on the pilgrimage trail itself, known as the Camino de Santiago. To experience the sights, sounds and tastes of traditional Santiago de Compostela, head to Casco Antiguo, the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site. On its two main streets, you’ll find restaurants, cafes, boutiques and shops selling locally produced goods.
