Embark on a walking tour of Palencia and explore the city with an official guide. Walk along Calle Mayor and admire the Colegio de Villandrando building, step inside the Cathedral of San Antolin, and much more.
Meet your guide and set out to uncover Palencia's historical and artistic heritage. Begin with a visit to the Palencia Cathedral, popularly known as “the unknown beauty” because it is not as famous as other Spanish cathedrals.
Learn about the cathedral's past and how it was constructed on the site of the crypt of San Antolin. Take in the flamboyant Gothic features on the building's exterior before stepping inside to discover the impressive Renaissance altarpiece in the main chapel.
From here, continue your guided tour as you stroll along Calle Mayor. Take in the sights and sounds of Palencia and admire the collection of eclectic and modernist buildings along the way, like the Colegio de Villandarnado.
Wander across the Plaza Mayor and see the Town Hall that presides over it. Pass other popular attractions like the Santa Clara Monastery as you walk, and learn interesting facts about the city from your guide, including the history of Spain's first university.
Your tour concludes back at the meeting point, the perfect spot from which to continue exploring this city on your own or head to one of the nearby bars or restaurants for some refreshments.
