Night scenes and others from Santiago de Compestela.





The Pazo de Bendana from the 18th. Century now the town hall and the regional government offices.


The rear of the Cathedral, the blue bit is part of the scaffolding round one of the towers.



The clock tower 236 feet high, known as the Berenguela Tower built in the 17th. Century.

The Mercado, we spent a very pleasant hour wandering round this market part of which was outside. The weather was on our side for this walk, the rain held off for over an hour.



Santiago is full of old buildings like this, a real treasure house of old architecture.
Rain washed streets.
The front entrance to the little hotel we stayed at, Hotel Literario San Bieeto, super situation with a parking garage one street behind. Most of the old town of Santiago is traffic free.
 
Moving on into Portugal, to,a town called Guimaraes.
