  • Every year hundreds of thousands of people visit Santiago de Compostela to see the world-famous cathedral and resting place of St. James - many after just completing their walk on the Camino de Santiago. And it's an incredible place.
    But there's a lot more to Santiago de Compostela than the (incredible) cathedral.
    Here are 12 of our favorite things to do once you get to Santiago, including our favorite places to eat, drink, and some slightly hidden ideas for different ways to spend your days in this pilgrim hotspot.
    Santiago has become one of our favorite cities in Galicia, here's why:
    00:00 Intro
    00:34 Praza do Obradoiro
    02:40 See the Cathedral

    As pilgrims who have watched a ridiculous amount of Camino content, this is the video we didn't know we needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you for delving a little deeper into this special city!... Brb, sharing this with a friend for our upcoming return to Santiago. ❤

      @@DaysWeSpend Dude you aren't missing a thing over here in America, you know what they've done to Real Estate prices over here the last 3 years, it's obscene, and the property taxes go right up along with it. Food costs, Medical costs, Housing costs, insurance cost, all out of control and nobody in the government doing a thing about it other than raising interest rates. Do yourselves a favor and stay in Spain, America is pretty much toast. Hope this helps.
