Burgos
I went to Burgos
last weekend and I was so delighted of the city that I just wanted to
let you know!
Burgos was founded in
884 and its
historical heritage is immediately evident to every
visitor. Its a monumental town and it has a really charming medieval
northern castilian ambience.
The gothic
cathedral dominates the scenery, but there are many other important
monuments such as the Cartuja de Miraflores or the
Monastery of Las Huelgas.
The
town is very quiet and, I thought, especially clean for Spanish
standards. ;)
After a sightseeing-tour
take a walk through one of the beautiful parks and try out Burgos' exquisite cuisine afterwards!
When you're there you shouldn't miss to visit the surroundings of the
town as well. You will find some villages of really extraordinary
historical and artistical value.
Cheers, Chris
