This city has a lot to offer. It's the capital of the province of Burgos, and with that comes access to everything a large regional city has to offer. That's a nice change after biking from small country town to town. What I was really looking forward to is seeing the Cathedral of Burgos. It's a beautiful Gothic church that sits in the middle of the old town and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. What I was surprised by is the amount of Christian tourists. They weren't here specifically to see the church, although it was an added bonus, I'm sure. They were here because Burgos is a major stopping point on the route to Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. If I'm ever back here it's because I'm on the St. James path.

Just entering the city after a windy 75 miler.
Landmark on the St. James path.
Where I got my back rack bolt fixed. Cost me 67€.
Saw this on my way to Burgos. Jurassic World?
