Camino Photo of the Day: Welcome to Triacastela

Sadly, there aren’t three castles in Triacastela. Oh, there used to be, but in AD 968 Norman raiders made it this far up the Río Oribio and put an end to that. More than a thousand years later, the town somehow retains their memory in its name. Unlike the Vikings, we on the other hand were just looking for someplace to eat lunch.
