Pilgrimage of beautiful prayer - Santiago de CompostelaSantiago de Compostela is a pilgrimage place appointed to a world heritage, and is on an approximately northwest edge of the Iberian Peninsula, and it is a destination of a pilgrimage way starting from town of a French world heritage, Vezelay (a sacred place). Santiago de Compostela is the town which had a slightly mysterious atmosphere full of the people of an earnest Christian every day. The reason why Santiago de Compostela became the pilgrimage place comes from that the grave of one St. Jacob (Santiago in Spanish, Saint James in English) of the apostle of Jesus Christ was found here. The opening of the trip to Santiago de Compostela wants to go to
the Monte do Gozo (delight hill) by car from an airport. A legend of St. Jacob you should know
Monasterio de San Martin Pinario, St. Jacob
Monasterio de San Martin Pinario
is one of the monasteries established for a long time in Santiago. Monasterio de San Martin Pinario, the decoration of the baroque of the 17th century
is given high altar of the temple of Confucius inside,
and it is the gold that is dazzling so as to be blinded. When mass is over, Botafumeiro, the incense lamp of the expression is rejected by you greatly in a temple of Confucius, and delete the smell of the pilgrim play a role. Jesse Tree which traced the ancestral genealogy of Christ on the pillar that judger Christ image partitions off an arch lengthwise is carved in Tympanum, (a semicircular small room on a door) of a central arch of a certain Portico de la Gloria in a temple of Confucius. I put five right fingers under a tree, and a heart seemed to purify a head strangely when a pillar could be accompanied and did the permission and the prayer of the crime. Pilgrimage attire of St. JacobThere is the shell of the scallop when taking the pilgrimage attire of St. Jacob good. In connection with it, I recommend the key ring of the shellfish to a souvenir. St. Jacob image appears when opening a shellfish. It is one article that can worship the figure anytime.
