You have to cross several roads and railway lines until you reach the
beautiful chapel of Santa Lucía, to continue onto the Camiño Real de Piñeiro
to Angrois. Most pilgrims tend to hold their breath when they cross
over the railway tracks as this is where the terrible train accident happened
in 2013. 79 people lost their lives and those who survived were helped out of
the train by the villagers of Angrois, now heroes known the world over.
You continue onto the Calzada do Sar and on top of the mountain, you may
glimpse at the Cidade da Cultura de Galicia before you see the city of Santiago
de Compostela. The neighbourhood of Sar shows pilgrims its wonderful
Colexiata de Santa María, with leaning pillars. You cross the river on a stone
bridge and there is only one last climb to go, the Costa do Castrón Douro until
you are in the old town of Santiago, where the Praza do Obradoiro and the
Cathedral await you.
Here 10 things to
do in Santiago.
