IN THE HEART OF THE RIBEIRA SACRA
The
new Parador is housed in the Santo Estevo de Rivas de Sil monastery, in Nogueira
de Ramuín (Ourense). It is located in a region populary know as the birthplace
of the 'afiladores y paraguerios' (knife sharpeners and umbrella holders) and is
one of the towns in Ourense in which the topography and the confluence of the
rivers Miño an Sil create spectacular spaces that are worth visiting. The
Monastery is one of Galicia´soldest, founded in the 6th century a.c.e. The
original construction is Romanesque, though does show Gothic tendencies. Worth
nothing are its 18th century baroque facade, its monumental staircase and its
three cloisters: 'De la portería', 'De la Cocina', and 'De los Obispos'. The
latter is the only cloister in Galicia, together with the cathedral in Tui,
whose original construction has been preserved intact.

We had a fabulous time on the Camino de Santiago! Everything worked as
it should have and all contact we had with anyone associated with
EATours was very friendly, very helpful and totally professional. You
can be sure that we will be passing the word. A real pleasure...
