Information
The best way to explore Pontevedra is on foot. A tour of its elegant and well-maintained historic centre will cover the Basilica of Santa María La Mayor, a jewel of Gothic architecture, and the Church of the Pilgrim Virgin, a chapel with a scallop-shaped floor plan which is beautifully illuminated at night. You’ll learn more about the history of the city by visiting the five sites of the Museum of Pontevedra: the Convent of Santo Domingo, the Sarmiento Palace, the Castro Monteagudo building, the García Flórez building and the Fernández López building.
A few kilometres from the city, the Rías Baixas open into the Atlantic, and there you can enjoy fantastic sunsets in places including the island of A Toxa, urban beaches such as Silgar in Sanxenxo, or immense golden sands like A Lanzada.
Environment
There are also numerous pazos, Galician manor houses where nature and stone are perfectly combined. Some have wonderful gardens with small fountains and ponds, such as the Pazo de Lourizán. And, if you like nature, Pontevedra has to 20 kilometres of coastal and mountain routes.
