Hiking
The impressive Basilica del Pilar is, according to history books, the first church dedicated to Mary. On January 2, in the 40th year AD, the Blessed Virgin appeared on the banks of the River Ebro. Surrounded by angels from Jerusalem, she gave strength and faith to the apostle James the Greater and some converts. She spoke to them and asked them to build a shrine. Since then, this location has been a place of pilgrimage.

Standing in front of the basilica in the plaza, it is so vast that I couldn't even fit it into a single photograph with a wide-angle lens.
