We’ll start at Plaza de la Inmaculada, next to the Monastery of San Martín Pinario, and walk around the cathedral, passing through Plaza de la Quintana and Platerías until we reach the iconic Plaza del Obradoiro, home to the Cathedral of Santiago, the Pazo de Raxoi, the Colegio de San Xerome, and the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos.

We’ll continue along Rúa do Franco to the Alameda, where I’ll tell you the story of Las Dos Marías. Then, we’ll discover the mysterious peepholes on Rúa Vilar and, via a narrow street, reach Rúa Nova, home to the Salón Teatro and the Church of Santa María Salomé.

On the final stretch, we’ll see the University Chapel, the Faculty of Geography and History, and the Church of San Fiz de Solovio, the oldest in Santiago. We’ll finish at the Mercado de Abastos, where we’ll explore Galician cuisine before saying goodbye.
