The pilgrimage to Santiago
Every year pilgrims, all over the world, arrive to in Santiago de Compostela to visit Santiago's cathedral and to see the statue of the saint, Apostle Santiago. It is a tradition that started in the Middle Ages. One thousand years ago, the society was very religious and Christians, from different parts of Europe, they walked a lot of kilometres to obtain the protection of apostle Santiago. The pilgrimage was so important that there were books with some tips to pilgrims in order to complete the pilgrimage with success. Some ways routes started in the centre of Europe and finished in Santiago crossing some countries.
Nowadays, we live in a society less religious society than some a few hundred years ago but this route of pilgrimage route continues being to be important to a lot of people. The motivations are not the same as those in that the Middle Ages but the use of this route is a fantastic form way to show the beauty of some regions of Spain, especially Galicia.
