As a good lover of bridges, taking advantage of the Pilar bridge I decided to take a getaway to A Coru\u00f1a. I decided on this destination because I was looking for a few days of\u00a0disconnection from the city, relax and<\/strong>\u00a0do something\u00a0gastronomic tourism<\/strong>. We chose a hotel that was in the center so we could move comfortably on foot throughout the city: beaches, nightlife area, restaurants and historic center. Furthermore, and it must be said, I took advantage of all of Jacobo's advice to make my trip perfect. Ready to get to know A Coru\u00f1a in one day?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the morning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No matter how much we try to organize our trips, more or less, in advance, we always end up doing it at the last minute. If we add to that that one of our objectives was to disconnect and relax, we found that, although when we arrived in A Coru\u00f1a we knew everything we wanted to see, we didn't know when we were going to do it. So... What better way to start the day than having a good breakfast and, meanwhile, prepare for the day?<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Breakfast<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

We had breakfast at El Valent\u00edn, a very cute and cozy cafeteria-restaurant. It is one of the most popular places in A Coru\u00f1a because\u00a0allow entry with dogs<\/strong>, so if you travel with your pet, you will be more than welcome! You can see the care and attention they put into each of the dishes, so if you have a sweet tooth like me,\u00a0You can't leave without trying their pancakes with chocolate and orange!<\/strong>\u00a0They are to die for! \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there is something I like more than bridges, it is going to the beach. It doesn't matter if it's cold, cloudy, raining or sunny: it's always a good time to go. Because? I love the smell of the sea and the tranquility that the waves convey. So without thinking twice, we headed to the beach area.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Coruna<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

When we arrived, my mind immediately moved to Ireland, since the resemblance is impressive: Cliffs surrounded by green areas, incredible landscapes and a feeling of freedom. We walked along the coast through the area of the dolmens until we reached the Tower of Hercules<\/strong>What a storm of water fell on us! Thank goodness we were prepared with boots and a raincoat!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Hercules<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The Tower of Hercules<\/strong> It is the only lighthouse from the Roman era that is still preserved and that, to this day, continues to perform its function: serving as a guide and maritime instrument for ships that cross the Atlantic Ocean. Don't leave without visiting it! Besides, If you have your youth card with you, entry will only cost you \u20ac1.50<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travel The promenade of A Coru\u00f1a is amazing, it is the longest in the world!<\/strong>, but the roar of our bellies acted as an alarm to let us know that it was time to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to eat<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Octopus<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

As good tourists in Galicia, we wanted to eat a small portion of\u00a0Octopus \u00e0 feira with cachelos<\/em>\u00a0and some fish accompanied by an Estrella Galicia and a glass of wine. To do this, we head to Calle Estrella, where you will find a great variety of restaurants to choose from. We opt for\u00a0To Mundi\u00f1a<\/a>, since we had heard very good references about him. You have the\u00a0tapas eating option<\/strong>\u00a0and portions on the terrace or on the high tables when you enter. Or, if you prefer something more formal, there is also a restaurant, itself, inside. We left equally full and happy, both because of how good the food was and because of the kindness of all the waiters who served us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the afternoon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To reduce the food a little bit, we went to the Riazor Beach<\/strong>, where in addition to walking, we sat on the breakwater pretending that we were in the middle of the sea and without getting wet or stained with sand!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Santa<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Once digestion was done, we headed to the center, where we walked through each of the alleys. It is true that there are notable monuments, but what we liked most was being able to discover each of the corners. We took a thousand photos in the Plaza de Mar\u00eda Pita and we toured the port and played in the arcades of Avenida de la Marina<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At night<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"Estrella<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

If you are beer lovers, the\u00a0Estrella Galicia Brewery<\/a>\u00a0It's a must.\u00a0It's almost always full<\/strong>, so if you want to go with the certainty that you are going to have a place,\u00a0you can reserve a table<\/strong>\u00a0online<\/strong>\u00a0choosing the day, the time and the people you are going to be. The place is decorated in the purest beer style and they have finger-licking tapas.\u00a0I recommend that you try the\u00a0raxo<\/em>: composed of pieces of pork loin meat accompanied by French fries<\/strong>. It should not be drunk on an empty stomach!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For dinner, we chose a somewhat more hipster place in the Orz\u00e1n area called\u00a0The barbershop<\/a>. If you like the\u00a0signature cuisine (at affordable prices!)<\/strong>\u00a0or you want to try something different, this is your place! The truth is that we were not very hungry, so with three tapas we had enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to continue with the Galician night, you can do so on Estrella Street or in the Port area<\/strong>. You will surely end up with more than one anecdote!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And after this mini-vacation, it was back to the office! I'm already thinking what it will be\u00a0my next destination<\/a>, Any recommendation? Of course, A Coru\u00f1a has set the bar high.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
