10. “Ensanche,” a place to be discovered

It might not appear in all the guides, but from Praza de Galicia towards the south of the city, we cannot overlook Compostela’s “Ensanche” (new town). This area features an important number of Santiago’s shops and restaurants from different parts of the world: Japanese, Turkish, Italian, Galician, fast food, tapas… A place that is not visited by many tourists, where we can relax, between one purchase and another, in the Praza Roxa’s busy pavement cafés.

And to end the day, what could be better than going to one of the area’s clubs or discos to have a drink and enjoy Compostela’s nightlife?
