Santiago de Compostela star star star : The Michelin guide review

Santiago de Compostela is the world’s third biggest Christian pilgrimage site, after Rome and Jerusalem. Its old town, with paved streets lined with arcades, is a maze of stone buildings, and is often full of university students and tourists strolling through its squares. The Praza da Obradoiro, surrounded by imposing monuments in varying styles (Baroque, Renaissance, neo-Classical, Gothic), is particularly harmonious in style thanks to the continued use of granite through the centuries.
