Plaza do Obradoiro (Galician for Square of the Workshop) in front of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is always full of tourists and pilgrims. In this photo one can see a group leader giving instructions, some pilgrims with backpacks and others resting on the flagstone plaza.

Fuente de Los Caballos (Fountain of the Horses) in Plaza de las Platerias, sculpted by J. Pernas in 1829. The female figure holds the traditional star of the city. The fountain inspired the poem "Moonlight Dance in Santiago" by Federico Garcia Lorca.
