Congratulations on the second day of walking around Burgos!
It was in this mission that Christopher Columbus told the Spanish rulers that he had discovered the New World
Today is waiting for you:
- Monastery of Saint Juan — a former monastery of the 15th century, preserved in the form of an open archaeological space under a glass roof
- Casa del Cordón Palace is the place where Christopher Columbus stayed after his trip to America. The facade with carved cord is a symbol of the power of the Franciscan Order and Gothic luxury of the 15th century.
- Plaza Mayor de Burgos — colorful facades, lively atmosphere and terraces of coffee shops, where residents meet for evening vermouth.
An interesting fact: during the restoration of the Burgos Cathedral, archaeologists found underground the remains of an ancient Roman road, which passed just under the current historical center.
We wish you a wonderful day in Burgos 🇪🇸
