Santiago de Compostela Travel Guide Resources & Trip Planning Info by Rick Steves

"I can see why more than a thousand years of Christian pilgrims have trod the desolate trail across northern Spain just to peer up at the cathedral's glorious façade; it feels like the culmination of a long journey and anchors the city's generally festive atmosphere as travelers from every corner of the globe celebrate their arrival." - RICKSTEVES
