Santiago de Compostela is a small town well known for Camino. Camino is a pilgrimage in Spanish. Santiago de Compostela is the goal of pilgrim path. Santiago is in Galicia area it rains a lot during a winter. It’s not only the winter it rains a lot except summer. Because of lots of rain, in Galicia area, greens are super beautiful !! ( I had misunderstood if rains lot, it’s dark, so less greens I could see. but it’s wrong.) We stayed 2 night at Satiago de Compostela and I heard it had been rain for 2 month, but we are lucky to get blue sky at last day. And it must be so nice for pilgrims after walking long way(sometimes they even get snow in a middle of pilgrim.) God bless! Anyway I love the color of Galician green. Grasses,moss,lichen covered the ground, tree, building. So many variety of green and it looks vivid.

Hospital de Sant Pau was designed by the Catalan modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, It was amazing that it still works as hospital besides such a unique design. It not looks like a hospital at all. It is no wonder if it was in a Wonderland!

flag of Catalunya We found the language used in Barcelona is different from Andalusia. It is called Catalán. “pan con tomate” becoms “pan amb tomàquet” in Catalán. And there is an independence movement in Catalunya from the rest of Spain.

We enjoyed classic concert at Palau Música Catalana at night. It is designed by the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner. He was a teacher of the architect school that Antoni Gaudí went.
