Apartment tour in Santiago de Compostela, Spain
I got this flat for $750 a month through AirBnb. It's a 2x1 and rather spacious compared to my studio in Portland. It's just a 7 minute walk from the downtown area.
It's incredibly quiet and I have a washer, oven, gas stove, and central heat.
Camino de Santiago Full Doumentary (The Way of St. James )
Camino de Santiago full documentary in english and spanish.
Camino de Santiago (The Way of Saint James) is the perfect mix of touristic-sports adventure and religious sentiment. This documentary shows all of the story from the origins until today.
The discovery of the sepulcher of the Apostle Santiago, in the first third of the IX century, compelled many Christians to make pilgrimages to Compostela doing the Camino de Santiago (Way of Saint James) to worship his relics.
This required the construction of a church. This building, besides guarding and honoring the relics of the Apostle and his disciples Teodoro and Atanasio, had to take in a greater number of pilgrims coming from the Peninsular kingdoms, as well as from the rest of Europe. The purpose of its builders was not only to construct the most perfect church dedicated to the cult of the pilgrims; they wanted to make Compostela a religious and artistic reference for the world, like Rome and Jerusalem.
These are the beginnings of a fascinating story, a fabulous saga spanning centuries carried out
by thousands of people united in their devotion to the figure of the Apostle Santiago, in a remote corner of Finisterre. They called it Compostela: the field of stars.
The present state of the Santiago Cathedral is the result of numerous changes, projects, works, remodeling; in short, an evolving and impassioned architectural and artistic creation developed throughout many centuries.
Camino de Santiago. The Temple of the Stars - Full Documentary
Even though Jerusalem, Rome and Santiago have been the three great destinations for pilgrims
since the Middle Ages, the Camino de Santiago (Way of Saint James) to Santiago is the only one that is still traveled the same way today as it was back then: on foot and with little else than a shoulder pouch.
It had been a long time since news of the discovery of the Santiago sepulcher had reached France. Those were dark and dangerous times.
Terror broke loose when the Saracen army flattened Compostela. Almanzor had destroyed its basilica and other churches and monasteries. Bishop Diego Peláez decided to build a new church
to replace the pre-Romanesque Basilica. We fly over the city of Santiago. From up here, we can see the cathedral and near it, the church of San Félix de Solovio.
And it is in this place where chronicles tell of a hermit known as Pelayo who, as he fasted, observed some lights shining on the ancient Roman citadel. Before such news, the bishop arrived at the site and discovered the entrance to a small sepulcher among the weeds.
A church was built above the sepulcher to worship the Apostle’s relics. Construction was finished in 830 and Bishop Teodomiro consecrated the first Church of Santiago.
In the year 1101, while in Santiago after being named bishop by Pope Paschal II Diego Gelmírez initiated his projects. The first would be the conclusion of the cathedral. It was apparent that if he wanted the Santiago church to become that great Apostolic see, it had to be at the vanguard of art.
To this end, he patronized continuous exchanges between Compostelan builders and the most advanced constructors of the times. Camino de Santiago (The Way of St. James) had definitely become a torrent of culutral and artistic exchange between Galicia and the rest of Europe.
Diego Gelmírez had achieved all of his goals: the construction of the cathedral was well on its way
and it was a benchmark for European Romanesque art;
And finally, on April 21 1211, Archbishop Pedro Muñiz, in the presence of King Alfonso IX,
consecrated the Romanesque cathedral of Santiago. The visits of Pope John Paul II and later Benedict XVI in the Holy Compostelan year of 2010, surrounded by a fervent multitude of pilgrims from all over the world, through Camino de Santiago ( Way of St. James) are a testimony to the magnificent vitality the Jacobean cult has today.
But notwithstanding all the changes, the works of Peláez and Gelmírez, of Masters Bernardo, Esteban, Mateo, and countless others, still remain unaltered and recognizable. In the spaces within its naves, columns, tribunes, chapels and porticos, the spirit of all those who contributed to its erection is conserved.
Thousands of pilgrims from around the world held each year Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James) to venerate the relics of the Apostle. Camino de Santiago (The Way of St. James) ends in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.

10 Things to do in Santiago de Compostela
Santiago de Compostela is not just the final point of the Camino de Santiago, it is a fantastic place to explore, wandering around its alleys and stone-paved streets. As some Galicians say, Santiago is not a city, it is a 'big village'. The city population is just around the 100,000 mark but with nearly 50,000 students settling there for the academic year and thousands of pilgrims walking into town every year.
I think Santiago is a great city but I'm obviously biased. I lived in Santiago (or 'Compostela') for four years while studying at the city's University (one of the oldest in the world by the way.
10 things to do in Santiago de Compostela:
1-Cathedral
If you have walked all the way to Santiago de Compostela, your first stop is likely to be the Praza do Obradoiro with its imposing Cathedral, where the remains of Saint James are (allegedly) buried. The cathedral is Santiago's most famous building with a Romanesque structure and later Gothic and Baroque elements. At the Cathedral, check out the Pórtico da Gloria (the original Romanesque porch entrance by Mestre Mateo), the Botafumeiro (its giant thurible) and, if you are not scared of heights, ask to walk up to the Cathedral's rooftop to enjoy fantastic panoramic views of Santiago.
2-The Old Town
Santiago is divided in two main districts: the Old Town (Zona Vella) and the New Town (Zona Nova).
The Old Town with is winding granite streets, arches, squares and monuments has been an UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. Here you will find not only Romanesque and baroque churches, museums and some of the oldest University buildings but also many cosy cafes, traditional and contemporary restaurants, interesting shops and some of the best nightlife too!
3-Alameda Park
Take a breather at the Alameda, Santiago's most emblematic green space. Go for a stroll along the Paseo da Ferradura, get a nice tree-framed view of the Cathedral, sit by the statue of writer Valle Inclán or take a picture with the statue of 'As Marías', the two Fandiño sisters dressed in their colourful outfits. The sisters used to go for a walk in the Alameda every day at 2 o'clock on the dot. The Alameda park is also central point to many celebrations in Santiago's busy festival calendar.
4-'De Viños' -- Wine trail
Rúa do Franco goes all the way to the Obradoiro Square and takes its name after the French pilgrims that used to follow this street to get to the Cathedral. With adjacent Raíña, this is the most famous street to go out for a few drinks with friends. Many bars and restaurants along the Franco display their octopus, shellfish and other Galician delicacies on their windows (vegetarians beware!) and most offer a free bite with each drink: croquettes, tortilla or even tiger filet (not really tiger meat, by the way).
5-Museo das Peregrinacións
After walking to Santiago as a pilgrim, you should probably visit this museum, dedicated to the pilgrimage.
6-San Domingos de Bonaval Park
'Bonaval' for short, is another popular park in Santiago de Compostela. Bonaval sits on the grounds of a Dominican convent's old cemetery and has been re-invented into a secluded public green space by Portuguese architect Álvaro Siza. Next to Bonaval you'll find two of Santiago's best museums: the CGAC (Galician Contemporary Art Centre) in a modern building also by Siza and the Museum of the Galician People (Museo do Pobo Galego) in the former convent.
7-Mercado de Abastos
9-Festas
Festas da Ascensión in May and Festas do Apóstolo in July are the main celebrations in Santiago, with outdoor concerts and many other events taking place, some of them free of charge. However, there are many more festivals in and around the different neighbourhoods in Santiago.
10-Try octopus
You can't leave Santiago (or Galicia) without trying the land's most iconic dish: octopus. The Galicians call it octopus fair style ('pulpo á feira') as it used to be a dish eaten on market day; while Spaniards like to call it octopus Galician style.

Camino da Costa to Santiago de Compostela 2019
I decided to do a Camino from Porto to Santiago de Compostela. The physical and mental challenge, that was my motive to do the Camino. No smartphone, a map and a lot of human interaction. The experience was ultimately much greater than my initial motive. It all came down to human connection. The people I've met, the motives I've heard and the lessons I've learned. Connecting with people and their stories is extremely powerful and educational. My biggest takeaways: preparation and reflection are key, help each other and put things into perspective. I would recommend it to everyone!

Today, when the traveler, pilgrim or tourist, arrives in Compostela and looks up in front of the facade of the Obradoiro , can only say: It has been worth it . Never such a simple phrase can say so much. The city of Santiago offers an unparalleled monumental complex. Its monasteries, temples, palaces, ancient streets and typical popular constructions, together with its spiritual and cultural significance, have deserved its inclusion within the Patrimony of Humanity .
The history of Santiago begins on July 25, 813, when the bishop of Iria, Teodomiro, checks the discovery of the tomb of the Apostle Santiago in a village, San Fiz de Solovio , which would eventually become the city of Compostela. The news of the discovery spread rapidly throughout Christendom, threatened by the danger of Islamic invasions. On the sepulcher of the Apostle a great basilica is built and a continuous flow and reflow of travelers and pilgrims is established between Santiago and the rest of Europe. Circles faith, culture, commerce and politics. Santiago de Compostela and its Camino become the Root and the Foundation of Europe .
The principal one was named Obradoiro for having had for almost ten years, from 1738 to 1747, the obradoiro (workshop) where the stones of the Baroque façade were carved, which the Galician architect Fernando de Casas e Novoa built in place of the Romance primitive. The towers reach a height of 74 meters. To its side is conserved the Palace of Xelmírez , constructed in century XII, at the same time as the primitive Romanesque cathedral. The residence of the canons, on the opposite side, currently houses the Cathedral Museum .
Three other buildings, of different eras and styles, close the square. The Colexio de San Xerome , founded by Bishop Fonseca, with a Romanesque-ogival cover. The Palace of Raxoi , of Neoclassical style of the XVIII, was constructed for seminary of confessors, residence of children of choir of the cathedral and town hall of the city. And the Royal Hospital , built by the Catholic Monarchs to welcome pilgrims and sick people, is a beautiful specimen of plateresque style, rare in Galicia, nowadays converted into a Parador de Turismo.
