A CORUÑA. THE GLASS CITY

A Coruña has the oldest functioning lighthouse in the world; a sixteenth-century castle which houses an archaeological and historical museum where many ancient objects are exhibited; a museum dedicated to the writer Emilia Pardo Bazán, an exponent of naturalism and feminism in Spain, between the 19th and 20th centuries; monuments that keep alive the memory of famous artists born or lived in the city and much more.
My travel experience in A Coruña gave me the idea of writing a guide —which does not include the opening hours and the entrance fees to the places of interest—, with the information I was able to gather about the cultural, natural and gastronomic heritage of one of the most beautiful cities in Galicia. Particularly, information about its parks, gardens, monuments, museums, churches, traditional festivals, gastronomy and beaches. Furthermore, between historical truth and literary fiction, I recount its history to embark the Reader on a narrative journey that I hope it will arouse the desire to visit the Glass City, an unforgettable place from every point of view.
