Rest day in León

As per our last rest day, today’s post will be mainly pictorial.

We started the day with a stroll along the river and around the old town. Notable items above are the León bullring, León FC ground and the Casa Botines, one of only 3 Gaudi designed buildings outside Catalonia – unfortunately the museum is closed on Tuesdays!

The above are from the Convento de San Marcos – the majority of which is now a luxury hotel.

These pictures are from the La Basilica de San Isidoro de León – such amazing frescos and ceilings.

Finally, from the Cathedral – the stained glass is a wonder to behold.

Tomorrow we resume our walking and head to Villar de Mazarife.
