Capital of Oroso and the usual last overnight before Santiago. Its six-span medieval bridge over the Tambre is tied to a knights' sword fight over a woman and to fighting in the 1846 Galician uprising.
Santiago's sprawling industrial estate, where forest gives way abruptly to warehouses. Its large, busy bar-restaurant is a classic final refuel, and waymarks get sparse, so keep straight through the roundabouts.
The neighbourhood where the Camino Inglés enters Santiago's city streets. From here it's a little over 3 km to the Obradoiro, entering the old town near the site of the medieval Porta da Pena.
The final destination of the Camino de Santiago. A UNESCO World Heritage city centred around the magnificent cathedral believed to house the remains of Saint James the Apostle.
