Hiking
A very special highlight in Betanzos is the Santiago Church. I was a hospitalera in Betanzos for 14 days and only through mediation did I manage to get a guided tour on the last day. This church is also thanks to the founder Fernan Perez de Andrade.
The clock tower was added in the 16th century
Grandiose from the outside, even more beautiful from the inside.
