This was very nice, once we found it. Took the wrong trolley, ended up walking about a mile unexpectedly. Nice facilities. A light rain and we loved staying in the pool

Aquis Querquennis

Reviewed By 125lad - London, United Kingdom

second visit to this site, ruins are interesting and some good signs, the QR code explanations did not seem to be working which is a shame. prime attraction for me was the hot spring nearby where you can lie in hot water in an open air pool, there is a separate entrance to the hot spring or you can walk from the ruins about 500m. Very relaxed, mix of people enjoying the hot water. no changing areas so bring towels and or find a nearby bush. Museum is interesting (went of a previous visit) but all in Spanish and Galician as I recall.
