3 things about Ourense | CaminoWays.com
The city of Ourense, ancient 'Auria' for the Romans, is the starting point of the last section of the Via de la Plata route of the Camino de Santiago. Probably one of the most beautiful last sections of the Camino de Santiago routes.
'There are three things in Ourense, you won't find anywhere else in Spain', a popular saying goes: the Santo Cristo, the Roman Bridge and the Burgas hot water fountain. But there is much more than three things that will captivate you when you visit Galicia's thermal city.
-Thermal Waters
The city owes its name to its past as a gold mine but today, gold gone, Ourense's hot springs and thermal waters remain its most unique attraction, to locals and tourists alike. They can be found all over the city and many can be enjoyed free of charge. The most iconic is the thermal spring fountain of As Burgas (65°C), in the city centre.
There are four thermal areas in a stretch of merely three kilometres, on the right-hand bank of the river: A Chavasqueira public pools of hot mineral and medicinal waters (41ºC), then the thermal spring of O Tinteiro (43ºC) with waters believed to help alleviate skin problems, two kilometres ahead is Burgo do Muíño das Veigas (waters 65ºC to 72ºC) with four public thermal pools and the last one is Outariz (61ºC), with four pools recommended for sufferers of rheumatism and arthritis.
The pools open all year round, with a combination of public open-air baths and private areas.
-City of water and bridges
There are eight bridges over the River Miño, as it crosses the city of Ourense. The most famous one is Ourense's Roman bridge, from the first century, also known as the Old Bridge (Ponte Vella) or the Big Bridge (Ponte Maior). The bridge underwent some renovation work in the 12th and 13th centuries, as well as its final one in the 17th century. Seven of the 11 original bridge arches still remain today and the bridge is a pedestrian-only area since 1989.
-The Santo Cristo
Ourense's cathedral, also known as Saint Martin's Basilica, is home to the Santo Cristo, among other things. The Santo Cristo figure was originally brought from Fisterra to Ourense in the XIV century by Don Vasco Pérez Mariños, who was the city's bishop at the time.
Also in the cathedral, you can admire the 13th century Pórtico del Paraíso and the permanent nativity scene in the chapels of San Cosme and San Damián.
-More to explore
Once you have visited Ourense's three most famous attractions, it is time to discover many other things about Ourense that will make you love the city. Take some time to explore the old town and walk around its charming pedestrian streets and quintessentially Galician granite squares, dotted with fountains, 'cruceiros' (crosses) and statues dedicated to some of Ourense's most famous writers. Stroll along the arches of the main square, home to the city hall and Episcopal Palace, where the main festivities in the city take place. There are many more chapels, churches and monuments to visit in the city, such as the convent of Saint Francis and the archaeology museum, but if you more inclined to relax in a green space or stretch the legs and watch the world go by, head for the Alameda park or the Parque do Posío botanic gardens.
Take a break to taste traditional Galician cooking in one of the many bars and restaurants in the old town, and you shouldn't leave without having a sip of Ourense's best juices.
Ourense's wine might not be as well known abroad as Albariño but the province has four 'Denominación de Orixe' (Origin Designation) wine labels of great quality: Ribeiro, Valdeorras, Ribeira Sacra and Monterrei.
-Festivals in Ourense
A handy tip for walkers will be to avoid Ourense in the Summer as it gets some of the highest temperatures in Europe.
Spring and Autumn are probably the best seasons to enjoy Ourense, and during this time of the year, you will find colourful festivals on your Camino de Santiago from Ourense:
-Ourense's 'magosto' is probably one of the most famous in Galicia. Magosto is a traditional Autumn celebration in Galicia, when friends and groups gather to enjoy roasted chestnuts and welcome to the winter season. Ourense's public Magosto celebration takes place on 11th November, San Martiño's Day, in the main square.
-Os Maios, a pre-Roman festival to welcome the Spring. Held on the third of May.
-International Cinema Festival in November
-A Bela Auria festival in September celebrating Ourense's history and traditions.
-Ourense Festival in June, starting in Corpus Christi.
-Carnival is also a very popular festival in Galicia and Ourense province is particularly famous for its ancient Carnival traditions.

Galicia Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Galicie in Spain.
Our journey through romantic northern Spain travels south through Galicia along the Atlantic coast. A Coruña is the region’s largest industrial city and shipping harbour and it thought to have been founded by the Phoenicians in 60 A.D. The Romans conquered this harbour city that has always been associated with the sea and it was from A Coruña that the invincible Spanish Armada set sail in1588 to invade England. Santiago De Compostela is the capital of Galicia and since the Middle Ages it was, apart from Jerusalem and Rome, the most important pilgrimage destination in Christendom. Half a million pilgrims came here each year from all over Europe and Spain’s most religious city continues to attract the faithful. Some centuries ago each of the large villages of the Rias Baixas prospered due to fishing, as did Pontevedra. However, all this changed when its harbour was engulfed by sand some three hundred years ago. In contrast to Spain’s many other harbour cities, the old town of Pontevedra is almost the same now as it was in bygone times with cobbled streets, intimate squares and the residential palaces of the city’s former elite. Across a huge chain bridge that spans the mouth of a deep river is Galicia`s largest city, Vigo. Its name is of Roman origin and it is believed that Vicus Spacorum was the starting-point of Caesar’s campaign against Britannia, as well as a storage area for his Empire’s oil, fish and wine. For many centuries A Guarda, ‘the Female Guard’, has watched over the river border with Portugal and in the wooded mountain city of Monte Santa Tecla the Celts established a settlement that contained more than a thousand buildings that dated back to the 6th and 3rd centuries B.C. and formed part of a prehistoric settlement. Throughout the centuries life in Galicia was not representative of that in the rest of Spain and both Romans and Moors considered it to be too remote for their interests. Maybe that’s what makes it such a special place to be!
