Castillo de Vimianzo is in very good condition. It conserves parts of century XIII , although the majority belong to the centuries XIV and XV. The building has irregular polygonal floor plan adapting to the terrain. It consists of three rectangular defensive towers around a courtyard of weapons in addition to the tribute tower , with its cantilevered battlements. The diamond-studded battlements that once surrounded the entire castle are only preserved in the Tower of Homage and in the walk of one of the walls.
Its perimeter is surrounded in its entirety by a deep moat. It also preserves the way of round and in the doorway of entrance to the patio you can see the shield with the head of wolf of Moscoso.

Places to see in ( Galicia - Spain ) Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela
Places to see in ( Galicia - Spain ) Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela
The Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Santiago de Compostela, and is an integral component of the Santiago de Compostela World Heritage Site in Galicia, Spain. Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela is the reputed burial place of Saint James the Great, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. The cathedral has historically been a place of pilgrimage on the Way of St. James since the Early Middle Ages, and marks the traditional end of the pilgrimage route. The building is a Romanesque structure, with later Gothic and Baroque additions.
The grand heart of Santiago, the cathedral soars above the city centre in a splendid jumble of spires and sculpture. Built piecemeal over several centuries, its beauty is a mix of the original Romanesque structure (constructed between 1075 and 1211) and later Gothic and baroque flourishes. The tomb of Santiago beneath the main altar is a magnet for all who come to the cathedral. The artistic high point is the Pórtico de la Gloria inside the west entrance, featuring 200 masterly Romanesque sculptures.
Over the centuries the cathedral has suffered some wear and tear from water seepage, settlement and humidity, and a current restoration program means that you may well find much of the main (western) facade and the Pórtico de la Gloria covered in scaffolding. It's hoped that work on the Pórtico de la Gloria will finish by late 2017, but until then access to it will be restricted to a limited number of guided visits daily: check with the cathedral's Visitor Reception Centre for current information on these.
The cathedral we see today is actually the fourth church to stand on this spot. It has a traditional Latin-cross layout and three naves. The lavish baroque western facade facing Praza do Obradoiro was erected in the 18th century, replacing the weather-damaged Romanesque one. This is traditionally the cathedral's main entrance, but it's currently closed because of the restoration works. Most people therefore enter the cathedral through the south door on Praza das Praterías (beneath the only facade that conserves its original Romanesque structure). Inside, the fantastically elaborate, churrigueresque Altar Mayor (High Altar) rises up from the central crossing where the transepts intersect the nave, with the long main nave stretching away to the west, flanked by majestic rows of Romanesque arches.
From the right side of the ambulatory (walkway) that runs round behind the Altar Mayor, a small staircase leads up to a statue of Santiago that has watched over the cathedral since its consecration in 1211. The faithful queue up to kiss or embrace the statue. From here you emerge on the left side, then descend some steps into the Cripta Apostólica, where we are assured Santiago's remains lie, inside a large 19th-century silver casket. Behind the Altar Mayor is the Puerta Santa, which opens onto Praza da Quintana and is cracked open only in holy years (next in 2021).
A special pilgrims' Mass is usually celebrated at the High Altar at noon daily, with other High Altar Masses at 7.30pm and 9am or 10am. Touristic visits are discouraged during Mass.
For wonderful views of the cathedral's interior from its upper storeys, and of the city from the cathedral roof, take a cathedral rooftop tour.
The artistically unparalleled Pórtico de la Gloria (Galician: Porta da Gloria) stands just inside the cathedral's Obradoiro entrance, at the west end of the nave. If you're unable to see the Pórtico itself because of restoration works, you can at least visit an exhibition on it, which is being maintained for the duration of the restoration in the Pazo de Xelmírez adjoining the cathedral (access to the Pazo is included in tickets for the Museo da Catedral and the rooftop tour). The Pórtico features 200 Romanesque sculptures by Maestro Mateo, who was placed in charge of the cathedral-building program in the late 12th century. These detailed, inspired and remarkably lifelike sculptures add up to a comprehensive review of major figures from the Bible, with the Old Testament and its prophets on the north side, the New Testament and Apostles on the south, and glory and resurrection depicted in the central archway.

Beach on the camino | CaminoWays.com
With almost 1500 kilometers of coastline, Galicia and its Rías (estuaries or bays) are home to almost 700 beaches! Galicia's many coves and beaches are a fantastic place to relax after your journey along the Camino de Santiago. If you are walking the Camino de Santiago in Summer time and have a few of days to spare, venture to the Galician coast, you will not regret it. The Galician Rías are divided in two: Rías Altas (higher estuaries in the North) and Rías Baixas (lower estuaries, in the South).
The best way to access the beaches of Galicia, particularly those not in towns, is by car. However, many coastal towns enjoy decent urban beaches within walking distance, if you are travelling by public transport and you are only craving a swim in the sea and a coastal town atmosphere.
Arousa and Muros/Noia are the closest estuaries to Santiago, therefore a good option if you are planning a short rip. You will find really stunning beaches only an hour drive away from Santiago de Compostela and usually only a few kilometres outside towns and villages: Carnota, O Grove, Muros, Baroña, Vilar, Corrubedo...
