If you climb the stairs between the paintings to follow the Camino, you'll see a small food truck on your right, offering a small selection of food, coffee, tea, and freshly squeezed orange juice. In the small green area opposite, you can enjoy your meal at small groups of tables and chairs. It's an excellent place for breakfast after the first 6 km from Santo Domingo de la Calzada toward Belorado.

The view into the distance to the west is simply sensational. Along the Way of St. James.

Saint John the Baptist (San JUAN BAUTISTA) is - like Saint Joseph - a man on the threshold of the Old and New Testaments. His parents are Zacharias and Elizabeth. After the announcement of the Incarnation of God through them, the Mother of God visits her relative Elizabeth, who will give birth to a son in her old age, namely John the Baptist. He is half a year older than Jesus and is considered his forerunner/pioneer. He lives in the desert, preaches repentance from sins to the Jewish population and baptizes them in the Jordan. Jesus also comes there to be baptized, and is filled with the Holy Spirit who descends upon him from heaven. The memorial day of San Juan Bautista in the calendar of saints is June 24th, exactly half a year before 'Christmas Eve'.

Fortification located in the town of Leiva, La Rioja. It is a fortified palace with a rectangular floor plan, with a tower located at each corner. Three of the towers are octagonal, and the one on the southeast corner, considered the keep, is decagonal in plan and taller. The origin of the castle was a tower erected in 1335 by Juan Martínez de Leiva. After sinking, in 1478 the construction of the castle began. The building has undergone numerous modifications, especially from the 17th century, in which it abandoned its defensive character and became solely residential. Later, already in the 20th century, it was used as an agricultural warehouse and offices. Starting in the year 2000, a reconstruction of elements such as the southern part of the west canvas and the southeast tower began.
