The traditional Camino de Santiago from St. Jean Pied de Port, France to Santiago de Compostela, Spain is one of the most popular and famous pilgrimage trails on Earth. This religious trail is full of stunning cathedrals that trail walkers get to see up close and personal.

Here are the four most beautiful ones that you’ll find between the start and finish.

Burgos Cathedral

The cathedral in Burgos is a sight that pilgrims won’t soon forget. This cathedral is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984, 724 years after being consecrated.

Astorga Cathedral

This is the smallest cathedral on the list and is located in the relatively tiny town of Astorga in the Leon province. It combines 11th-century Romanesque walls with a gorgeous Gothic exterior that was completed in the 15th century.

León Cathedral

This stunning place of worship is commonly known as “The House of Light” due to its incredible collection of stained glass windows that let tons of natural illumination into the cathedral. The 13th-century Gothic exterior is equally beautiful.

Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela

The final cathedral on the Camino is the most important one, located at the end of the Way in Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. Considered one of the most important and architecturally impressive churches in Europe, the granite exterior of this church is known worldwide.

Tired of traveling to sunny, warm, beach destinations where the weather is always perfect? I don’t blame you! We too often idealize blue skies as a goal in our vacations, but the truth is that there are rainy places to visit that have their own charm.

Here are four especially rainy cities that you must travel to if you don’t mind getting a little wet.

Bergen, Norway

Europe’s rainiest city is this port city on the Atlantic Coast of Norway, which has a gorgeous old town and a charming seaside walkway. Pack an umbrella, but get ready to see one of Norway’s best cities.

Vancouver, Canada

My favorite Canadian city might receive rain on an average of 170 days per year, but that makes it even more green and beautiful. Nature blends with cityscapes in this gorgeous, green, and eco-friendly city.

Santiago de Compostela, Spain

If you thought Spain was all about sunny weather and beaches, boy, were you wrong. Santiago de Compostela in the northwestern Galicia gets a ton of rain, which adds to the mystical charm of its old town and its world-famous Gothic cathedral.

Meghalaya, India

So, what’s the rainiest city on Earth? It turns out that it’s Meghalaya, India, a place in which it rains essentially every day of the year. The city in itself is a small place, but travel outside to see natural tree root bridges and spectacular waterfalls.
