The village of Astorga features:
The Walls
Astorga sits on a spur of rock, with mountains to the north and west. It has extant city walls to the south, east and west. You can walk along the walls to the south and gaze up in awe from one of the more scenic car parks to the north.The Bishop's Palace
Most camera crews doing Gaudi do not get as far as Astorga. The Bishop's palace is a fantastic piece of non-functional design. Balconies open over halls, walls curve and the whole flows. More conservative than other of his designs but still too much for the bishops, who never lived in it. It also has a museum dedicated to the Pilgrims way - which is not worth diverting to see.
