Leon - Day Off

We had a very welcomed day off in beautiful León. We wandered around, visited the cathedral and caught the tourist train. We bumped into many fellow pilgrims. Sharing morning tea, afternoon drinks and dinner.

Leon is a small, chilled but vibrant city. The cathedral is absolutely stunning – the stained-glass windows are massive and super detailed. Apparently the cathedral only took 50 years to build. We find it hard to comprehend how these cathedrals were built. Leon also adorns a Gaudí designed building, much like something out of Disney World.

Everything shuts down in Spain at 2pm for a few hours. Dinner bookings start at 8.30pm. Very hard for the Aussies to adjust to, especially when we’re usually in bed by 9pm.Read more
