History and what to see
Amenal, Lavacolla airport (where medieval pilgrims washed before entering) and Monte do Gozo, from which the cathedral towers first appear. You enter via San Lázaro, the Porta do Camiño and the Rúa das Casas Reais to the Praza do Obradoiro. Hug the Apostle, see the botafumeiro (if it swings) and collect your Compostela at the Pilgrim’s Office.
