About the destination: Since the Middle Ages and continuing to the present day, Santiago de Compostela has been a significant pilgrimage destination. This sacred city was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985. Located in the far northwest of Spain, 100km north of the Portuguese border, Santiago serves as the capital of the autonomous region of Galicia. The city is home to Spain's most renowned church. La Catedral is magnificent, a seamless blend of styles and periods beneath two towering spires. Just inside the main entrance is the Pórtico de la Gloria, one of the most exceptional examples of Romanesque sculpture in Europe. Close to the cathedral is the Museo do Pobo Galego, a museum dedicated to the Galician people, located in the Monasterio de Santo Domingo, which houses replicas of ancient Celtic ruins. Nearly half of Santiago's population consists of lively students eager to have fun. Bars and pubs are scattered throughout the medieval streets of the old town and along Calle Santiago de Chile. The nights in Santiago de Compostela have a unique glow. The moonlight transforms the town into a timeless setting where landmarks highlight the city's most beautiful and nostalgic aspects. And for those seeking a vibrant nightlife, Santiago's nights are endless.

About the destination: Since 1917, Fatima has been recognized as a sacred city. It is believed that the Virgin Mary made an appearance to three young shepherds. These apparitions of Mary transformed the city into one of the largest hubs of Marian devotion worldwide. Two massive churches were constructed over a sprawling 1km-long esplanade where the Virgin is said to have appeared, namely the Basilica de Fatima and the Igreja da Santissima Trinidade, which can seat up to 9000 pilgrims. Every year, people of all nationalities and beliefs journey here to affirm their faith and seek miracles. Fatima has become a symbol of Christian Portugal, with the town's heart being its Basilica. Within the basilica lie the remains of two children who claimed to have seen the Virgin; visitors can see the tombs of Jacinta and Francisco. The town's focal point is the Sanctuary of Our Lady Fatima. The most significant gatherings of devotees occur on May 13, during the Farewell Procession. However, the most breathtaking sight is on the night of May 12 during the Candlelight Procession, where thousands of visitors carry lit candles. The town is well-equipped with ample accommodations and hotels to house the throngs of pilgrims, as well as restaurants and shops, primarily selling religious merchandise.
