Routes of Santiago de Compostela:Camino Frances and Routes of Northern Spain.



The Route of Santiago de Compostela (Camino de Santiago) is a narrow route through the north of the Iberian Peninsula extending over 800 km from the Spanish-French border to the city of Santiago de Compostela, passing through five different Autonomous Communities and over one hundred inhabited towns.
Pilgrimages were an essential part of European cultural and spiritual life during the Middle Ages and along the route, pilgrims were provided with what they needed to ensure their physical and spiritual well-being.Thank you Belen for the nice card and beautiful stamp on TAJ MAHAL.Second time lucky.to have it.
