We are in Leon, after a pretty easy day of walking. Got to our pension around 1:30, cleaned up, and found a desperately needed laundromat.
We’re taking a layover day here, looking forward to sleeping in! Should be one more day of flat country walking when we leave Leon, then we should be back to rolling hills/mountains and towns made of stone instead of brick.
Our pension is close to the cathedral, which is convenient. The cathedral is pretty impressive. Tomorrow we’ll go inside to see the stained glass windows it is famous for, and see some of the other sights Leon has to offer.
The old part of town is called the Barrio Húmedo, or “Humid Neighborhood” because of all of the liquids consumed there. It’s got narrow streets and alleys and lots of bars/restaurants with tables jammed in out front. We’re going there for dinner tonight.もっと詳しく
旅行者We loved Leon! The cathedral is amazing! Our pension was right across the plaza from the cathedral. Hopefully you get to experience the market. Lots of fresh meat, cheese, bread, etc.!

旅行者When was the cathedral built?
Drink plenty of that Spanish wine while you have a day off. 🍷😎 [Tim McCarty]
