The monastery San Julian de Samos was founded in the 7th century and is one of the oldest monasteries in Spain.
We arrived very early and decided not to wait for it to open at 10:00 am.
The church Santa Maria in Sarria has a pilgrims mural painted along one of its walls.
The Camino begins to have a new marking here for bicyclists, reminded me a bit of Mickey Mouse on a bicycle
Portomarin is a new town, built in the 60's, when the original city was swallowed under the lake created by the damming of the Rio Mino. The church San Nicolas was moved brick by brick and is the center of this new city.
