Parador De Tui

Parador de Tui

The Parador: Located south of Vigo on the Portuguese border near the mouth of the River Miño, the ancient Galician town of Tui (Tuy in Spanish) was known to Greek geographers even before the Romans arrived, and in the early Middle Ages it was in the buffer zone between Christians and Moors. The most notable building is the cathedral (11th–13th century), which has both Romanesque and

Gothic elements.
