Santiago de Compostela is, as a matter of fact, an entire city that is one huge attraction in itself, with the old town made up of artistic streets, squares and buildings. Its attractive architectural styles range from the grandiose Romanesque design that is both religious (Cathedral) and civil (Palacio de Xelmírez), to the more modest and solemn Romanesque style of the Church of San Fiz de Solovio and Salomé.
If what you want is fun, then you can find more leisure information in Amebas a la deriva.
There also is the gothic style like the Church of San Domingos de Bonaval or the house of the King, Don Pedro. Other styles include Renaissance, baroque, plateresque and Neoclassicist, all of which can be distinctly seen carved in convents, churches, palaces, university faculties, monasteries, cloisters, stairways, palaces, libraries and more.
As a university city for the last five hundred years, Santiago, has acquired magnificent architectural buildings of a well-defined style throughout the centuries.
Santiago de Compostela, as a cultural center, is proud not only of the artistry of architecture but also of the works of art created by its artists which are in display at the following:
