After Andalusia and throughout the southern part of Spain this year .. we came back to finish the work with the central and settendrionale! The ride is long enough ... but while we're there .. also included Barcelona is always a pleasure to go in this city, whenever you feel like going back more than willingly. It seems almost needless to say that the city is a paradise ... perfect weather all year, city chock-full of monuments and perhaps the best people who stand around, comfortable, friendly, always ready to have fun! This city has a flaw?? I still find it .. is 4 times that I go and I struggle to find one ...! Reluctantly left Barca to bring us our initial itinerary ... proceeding to Madrid. The capital, well I want, is beautiful but less well the second in Barcelona, and still another kind of city .. no longer see the influence of the sea, climate and people start to change slowly, there are many things to see, starting from the famous Prado Museum contains the greatest works of Spanish and Italian painters, surely one of the most important museums of the world ... other than the Royal Palace, Palacio de Comunicaciones, Plaza Mayor, La Plaza de Toros .. although I have not had time to see the bullfight! But big fan of Real ... I could not miss to visit the Santiago Bernabeu, impressive in both structure and beautiful, and while I also took the candle shirt of Real!
After leaving Madrid we go to Avila to visit the castle of the same name and then we head to Burgos, beautiful city on which stands the great cathedral, truly spectacular! ... Of note are the church of San Nicola and the statue of El Cid a legendary Spanish warrior of the 11th century. From here, pull firmly on the west to Galicia, debuting with a stop in Vigo and Pontevedra (Dos Tirantes very nice bridge and the old town). Santiago de Compostela, as you know is a place of pilgrimage for thousands of faithful from all over the world ... .. the cathedral is spectacular rises to almost 80 meters with its Baroque architecture architecture .. phenomenal event! We also assist us in making a turn ... and for the church, remaining faithful and dazzled by how many people are in it .. ridiculous! The climate here is really more cool ... the ocean is starting to feel .. and even colder when you arrive in La Coruna, overlooking the Atlantic in the middle of the night is a really cool dog! The city is characterized by the Tower of Hercules, a lighthouse overlooking the city .. and the main square where you can find people of the city for a walk. Just outside the town of Finisterre theres the beach famous for his crosses and the sea ... but awfully cool! We close our beautiful trip leaving Galicia Asturias to reach Oviedo, capital city of Asturias with gothic churches and medieval villages of interest to conclude with Bilbao, home of the famous Guggenheim Museum in Spain too has gone !.... I think ... is really the best one if it was to see in Europe!
