The beauty of Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela

Santiago de Compostela is the capital of Galicia, in northwestern Spain. This was the end of my Camino de Santiago journey. When we arrived at Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, we felt so happy and achieved it. Time flies fast, it was a 5-day walking journey. Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela as the destination of the way of St. James, a leading Catholic pilgrimage route since the 9th century. The cathedral is the reputed burial place of Saint James the Great, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. In 1985, the old town here was listed in UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is my first time seeing the organ like this magnificent shape. When I was standing under it, it was so hard to describe how beautiful it was. I was speechless. On the same day in the afternoon, we saw there was a concert held outside the cathedral, everyone just sat on the stairs and listened, this kind of peace and happiness was amazing. In the morning, we couldn't find the entry, we thought it would be opened in the front main door, but it wasn't. Please find the souvenir shop first, and you will find the door to enter easily. The entrance is right next to the souvenir shop. #cathedral #cathedralbeauty #santiagodecompostela #caminodesantiago #spain #spaintravel #spaintrip
