Ponferrada

I was really looking forward to seeing it and of course it is closed today because it's Monday
I believe on my original schedule it wasn't Monday plus it was one of my possible rest stops...

In any case I took as many pictures as I could and then checked out Basilica Nuestra Senora la Virgen de la Encina. Totally cool. More info can be found at https://basilicadelaencina.es/index.html#Read more
