Burgos
If you fancy staying a few days, here is what we love most about Burgos: monuments, tapas, sweets and charming corners.
Sights, bars, restaurants, accommodation and car parks on a single map.
A must-see, inside and out.
Wander the old town and its streets.
Statue of the city’s legendary hero.
Easy to visit and highly recommended.
For a slower visit, and you will need a car. Buy tickets in advance.
Burgos is a major stop on the French Way, so it is common to see pilgrims around the city.
Local specialities: roast suckling lamb (lechazo), Burgos blood sausage (morcilla) and fresh Burgos cheese.
Varied breakfasts and specialty coffee, with indoor seating.
Traditional and modern bakery and pastries. No seating, but it sits beside a cathedral viewpoint with benches.
Hot chocolate with churros.
The “mejillón tigre” is a must. Also try the “cojonudo” (with chorizo) and the “cojonuda” (with blood sausage).
Fried calamari and mussels prepared to your taste.
Classic patatas bravas.
Mushroom pintxo. It is the only one, in case you don’t like mushrooms.
Their little ham sandwich.
