Tourism in Galicia

In the sombre, mysterious light of the Atlantic, at the western end of Europe, there lies a green country facing the ocean. It was here the Greeks situated the end of the Ancient World and where Homer said that the sun completed its circle, later to reappear in the East with the new day. Located to the south of the Celtic Sea, in the north of the Mediterranean area, Galicia has forged a culture in the crossroads of these two worlds. To the north of Portugal, in the north-west of Spain, there is a small country – barely three hours by car from north to south – brimming with contrasts and surprises at every turn in the road; we Galicians like to say that every house is a world, that every stone has a history and that in every plant there is a natural space. Here we have a country with an endless stock of experiences.
