Les Essentiels de la Galice

Le paysage de la Galice est défini par sa côte atlantique accidentée et son histoire profondément enracinée. Cette sélection présente le "bout du monde" dramatique au Cap Fisterra et le point le plus septentrional de la péninsule ibérique à Estaca de Bares. Au-delà de la côte, la liste met en évidence l'héritage romain à Lugo et l'architecture médiévale visible dans les Torres de Mens fortifiées et le monastère roman de San Xiao de Moraime. Des phares de la Costa da Morte aux forteresses perchées sur les hauteurs de Vigo, ces sites représentent l'héritage spirituel et défensif de la région.
