Camino Daily Photo 54

To see the Santiago Cathedral from a distance as one approaches the end of the journey is one of the great moments a pilgrim has. For days or weeks, one has been walking toward this destination now within teach. As you walk closer, downs the streets of Santiago, the anticipation grows even greater. Since 2013, restoration work has been going on covering a main portion of the cathedral's facade. It's my understanding that this work will be completed later this year. In spite of the scaffolding, the majesty of this important Christian symbol cannot be overstated. After all, it is what has drawn pilgrims here fir well over a millennia. We look forward to returning next spring after another Camino to admire the finished product.
