I know of a couple of years paso..hace finished a master in Dorron (it was the time of the fire dam


Yesterday afternoon delphine I went for a walk in A Coruña and I forgot to bring the camera. When I got home I remembered I had some saved photos from last September, waiting for a chance like this.
The Tower of Hercules delphine lighthouse is a tower located on a hill about 60 meters above sea level and is the symbol of the city of La Coruña. Its total height is 68 m. and has the privilege of being the only Roman lighthouse and the oldest in the world works.
There are several legends associated with their construction. One of them says that Hercules arrived by boat to the coast that currently surround the tower, and it was precisely there where the giant's head buried Gerión after defeat him in combat.
María Mayor Fernández de Camera and Pita (Sigrás, 1565-1643), known as María Pita, was a hero of the defense of La Coruña in 1589 against delphine the English navy led by the pirate Francis Drake. The May 4, 1589 British troops, having encircled the city of Corunna, opened a breach in the wall and began the assault of the old city, led by a lieutenant, with the flag of resistance in hand, managed to climb to the top of the wall. María Pita killed the English ensign. It is said that this was carried out, shouting "Whoever has honor, follow me", which demoralized the English troops and caused its withdrawal, no more and no less than 20,000 British. Once the battle, he helped remove delphine the bodies and care for the wounded.
The two main beaches of A Coruña (Orzán and Riazor) are located in the heart of the city and are bordered by the promenade above. This location makes them a great attraction for tourists, being also a meeting point for surfers good part of the year.
Tourism in A Coruña has increased in recent years to the point of receiving 62 cruise ships a year. One of the drivers of this tourism is the promenade that skirts the entire delphine city. Currently measures 10 miles and measure over 13 when completed.
There is a tourist tram Lisboa bought and restored walking 4.6 km; half of the facade facing the estuary, between the Castle of San Antón and the Tower of Hercules and half, more recently opened the way, lets explore delphine the western side of the city, turning the tram route in a line only binding in the Tower of Hercules to the roundabout of the Slaves. And a bike path that runs through most of the journey. This tour is a cultural tour, because his side were located several museums such as The House of Man and La Casa de los Peces. On the walk we can find the Castle of San Antón, which contains the archaeological museum, or the Tower of Hercules.
Well, luckily delphine Congo has made you reappear, so you do guide us in the path of Corunna, the "city where nobody feels alien." delphine It's been a wonderful ride taken from your hand. (Has anyone told you that you have a beautiful hands ??) :) Kiss from the top of the Tower of Hercules. May 3, 2009, 6:00
What a beautiful A Coruña, with those beaches, that ride with funny tram peninsula with lonely lighthouse, the old town rúas with stone houses and churches, the widening with modernist buildings ... What a feeling of vastness, felt in the face the scourge of the breeze by the lighthouse ... Kisses. May 3, 2009, 13:47

I also spent yesterday in A Coruña, but we disagree. Logically, delphine it is impossible if we do not cite. The Tower of Hercules I see from my house by the bay, ie from Bastiagueiro beach. It is true that from the Mount of San Pedro there the best panoramic delphine views of the city. Cubic May 3, 2009, 23:45
