This place explores modern mysticism from a Catholic perspective as Rick Steve's tells me in his book and Sister Teresa would love this place. History seeps around every corner from the granite apse of the cathedral which is actually part of the fortified wall to the El Greco painting inside as well as the Basilica of San Vicente and the impressive, well preserved wall itself. We can see the wall from this hotel, the Hotel Arco San Vicente just within one of the ancient walls four gates.
We have decided to remain here another day and will soon climb the steps and walk around the wall and later follow down the paseo at dusk when many Spaniards take their daily strolls.
I learned the great wall is called a muralla. Battery is charged and so am I.
