Turismo de Galicia

As an idea, Galicia is associated with greenness, with water, a raging sea, the sound of bagpipes and some heritage assets as well-known as the Cathedral of Santiago, the Tower of Hércules or the Wall of Lugo.

But Galicia offers much more to be discovered, as it is a land of villages, each with its own treasures, both artistic and ethnographic: small churches (many of them Romanesque jewels) belonging to old monasteries in the most remote of rural landscapes; fields and mills that seem to be frozen in time; fortified pre-Roman Iron Age villages and petroglyphs that fuel our imagination of the lives of our earliest ancestors; castles and fortresses – still standing – that transport us to the magnificence of the past. 

Lose yourself in the Ribeira Sacra or in O Ribeiro and discover one part of their religious heritage, which is immense; visit some of the largest groups of granaries in Galicia; take a leap in time and visit fortified pre-Roman Iron Age villages or dolmens as impressive as those of Santa Trega or Dombate...

This is but a small sample of what there is to discover in Galicia. Why don't you try to unravel its secret?
