About Santiago de Compostela
Santiago de Compostela is the Camino's end, where pilgrims arrive exhausted and transformed. The cathedral dominates a glorious plaza; the old town radiates from it. This is Spain's most sacred city, a place where spirituality tangibly persists. The Atlantic lies nearby.
