Top 9 Things to do in Sarria, Spain
Sarria is a municipality in the province of Lugo, northwestern Spain, in the autonomous community of Galicia. Sarria is the most densely populated town on the French Way in Galicia, with 13,700 inhabitants. It is head of the region and a popular starting point for the Camino de Santiago; many pilgrims choose Sarria because the distance from this point to Santiago allows them to cover the necessary kilometers to reach the Compostela. King Alfonso IX of León died in Sarria in 1230 while making a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. Sarria also represents the point of entry to the beautiful landscapes, such as Os Ancares and O Courel, east of Galicia.

I noted the door was open which was unusual for the many churches in this part of the world. Always been drawn to these places as they are so impressive inside. Anyhow, it seems church is only open for a few hours a day and that mainly for the stamping of pilgrim passports. I didn't partake but had a wander around the church instead. An impressive gold alter piece with vaulted ceilings. But none the less a simple church, which is unusual for this part of the world. Not worth a special trip but certainly worth a look if you are walking by.

Es una casa Antigua, pero muy bien conservada. Impresiona desde la entrada, sin duda es un local familiar y la dependienta que nos atendió un encanto.
Los dulces y el pan, elaborados artesanalmente. Una auténtica delicia; las empanadas, el pan, las galletas de chips de chocolate,.... una locura.
Y lo mejor es que los precios son súper bajos!!!
Nos llevamos media empanada, 4 bolsas de melindres, una docena de galletas de chocolate sin azúcar y una barra de pan por sólo 15€!
Estoy deseando volver por la zona para volver a comprar allí...

this is a beautifully decorated cafe and shop, selling a range of organic foods, natural cosmetics and handcrafted jewellery. if you are vegetarian or vegan, you will be very happy to come here, as there are endless amounts of options that are unusual to come by in Galicia. there is always some freshly made cakes and savoury tarts available at the counter, and you can get coffee and tea. the staff are really friendly and attentive, they go out of their way to make sure you have a pleasant time. a great place to have a coffee and read a book. highly recommended for pilgrims looking for something healthier yet delicious on the Camino

We walked pass the murals on our way through the town and found them inspiring in a way - the previous evening we walked passed and across the stream to see "all the ducks in a row" which was an omen for us
