    If you're going to do one thing in Pamplona. (after running with the bulls of course), I would highly recommend visiting the cathedral and museum. It is an amazing historical embodiment of the architectural history of the city through the many additions, modifications, and artifacts. I can't recall a cathedral in all of Europe that does a better job of documenting through excavation and displays. And the cathedral itself is outstanding and in excellent condition (no layers of dirt and grime).

    The Citadel ruins covers a huge area in the centre of the city and includes lots of intact buildings and walls. Nowadays it is incorporated into a large park and is a great place to take a stroll.

    We were here in the evening on our way to a restaurant for dinner. It's a lovely wide open plaza, and also known for the famous Cafe Iruña.

    We weren’t sure where this statue was located after arriving in the plaza, but asked around and finally found it. Well done, though smaller than I anticipated. Rub the horn, take a couple of pictures and move on. Really nice artwork.

    the pageantry and grace were to be admired , and if you treat the culture with respect there is no problem. but i do think it will go the way of fox hunting in the uk which is fine

    Much of this lovely park incorporates the remains of the 17th century Bastion de La Taconera and it is impressive how these old walls are used as de facto pens for the various types of birds you can see here.

    The formal part of the park is a delight to walk around and there is a decent cafe bar at which to rest a while or take some refreshment.

    This beautiful building is located in the old town, the heart of the city. It is near the beginning of the route of the Running of the Bulls.

    The staff was friendly. All of the signed and descriptions were in Spanish, however, for the mor important parts of the museum I was given a pamphlet with English descriptions. If it wasn’t in the pamphlet, I just pulled up Google translate.

    I went here soon after the church opened in the afternoon. There were lots of tourists inside, laughing and taking photographs, and finally the man in charge of the church, turned off all the lights, except for two or three. That basically ruined it for the rest of us that just wanted to quietly enjoy the interior of this beautiful church. This place really is worth visiting, and everything is covered in glittering gold.

    Amazing museum. The building in itself is worth seeing. The permanent collection of contemporary art is very good and the temporary exhibitions varied and exhilarating. We went to the Museum's theater as well for a Dance show we loved. Highly recommended!

    Parroquia San Lorenzo was a beautiful church we passed as my twin brother Stephen and I were heading to Chinaski Lavapies ( craft beer bar ) and what a beautiful church this is .
    The church looks absolutely stunning, the facade is very cool indeed, to me it looks like it's just been renovated, makes for some great photographic opportunities.
    I never ventured into the church but I was content to just admire the beautiful architecture of this church.
    Well worth checking out if your in the area.

    This part of the city walls is worth a look as it is the best example of how one of the main gateways would look. You also get good views of the surrounding city and country side.
