Pamplona/Iruña
Pamplona is the capital of Navarre, in northern Spain. It is world famous for the San Fermín festival and the running of the bulls each July.
Outside the festival, the city is calm and green, with a walled old town, a Gothic cathedral and lively pintxo bars. It suits one or two days, and it is on the Camino de Santiago.

Summer is the warmest season, with pleasant days. Spring and autumn are mild but rainy, and winters are cold and wet.
San Fermín runs from 6 to 14 July. The city is crowded and expensive then, so book rooms months ahead. The bull run takes place at 8 a.m. each morning, and it is dangerous.
