    Just came back from a 33 day vacation to Spain last November 18. What a gorgeous country! We rented an apartment in Zaragoza for 5 days and loved it!
    But honestly, we loved every single place we went to, as even little towns and hamlets have something to offer.
    I’m already planning my return trip and will base myself in Zaragoza. But again, we loved every place we visited, which was about half the country (driving).

    I was just there. Buy the tickets for the Aljaferia in advance! I was there just a few weeks ago with hardly any tourists in town but still no tickets were available. The city is known as the Windy City and it earned that reputation during my visit! It was cold and windy. Small, easy to walk around to all the historic areas. Much lower cost than Barcelona and Madrid. I enjoyed my time and will be back.

    Great city. My wife is from there I have visited at least 20 times.
    This video does hit all the high lights and all are worth while. I went there for 30 years and never saw La Seo because it was under recontruction. Well worth the wait. Same with Al Alferia. It was a dump 40 years ago but a beautiful place to visit today. Was there in 2022 with grand kids and they loved it. El Pilar is special. My daughter was baptized there. Look for the holes in the ceiling where the bombs entered but never exploded. You have to try the Ternasco de Aragon. That is a young sheep leg roast that is the best. Only from this region in Spain.

    I made a quick trip to Zaragoza on a trip to Barcelona in 2019…specifically to go to the Aljafería Palace and the Basilica. They were both absolutely brilliant and I wished I had been able to stay in the city longer…hopefully another time. Wished I had your video before that trip - definitely would have spent at least a few days in the city. Definitely recommend and the high speed train makes the trip so easy and pleasant.

    I visited Zaragoza recently and unfortunately was not impressed, it seemed like kind of a dump. I’m sure some parts are nice, and I assume the whole city was quite a bit nicer 20 years ago or so.

    Just finished a month in the southern half of Spain. Three days in Zaragoza. Not terribly impressed with the Pilar or the Aljaferia. (I would not suggest skipping the Pilar, but if you have visited either Cordoba or Granada, the Aljaferia is superfluous, plain, and mostly reconstructed.) The Goya museum and the Seo, especially the tapestries in the cathedral's museum, were excellent. The city is efficient, affordable and clean. But it is not Spain's leading attraction. I would advise going only if you have enough time in Spain, or if you are on a pilgrimage (the Pilar is the central temple for the Virgin's patronage and protection of Hispanic people).

    As a Spaniard it's scary to see the brutal expat appetite for Spain on social media, one knows that the positive things of immigration can be easily outweighed by the obvious downsides of massive affluence to one's country. First it was Barcelona and Madrid, then Mallorca, San Sebastian, and Málaga, now it seems as if there is no city in Spain small or hidden enough to be in the spotlight for the voracious relocation hype to Europe from Americans and Asians. Don't get me wrong, it's cool to be considered a nice country to live in by the rest of the world but doubling the population (yes, Spain received 85 Million tourists/expats in 2023), is unbearable for a country's social, economic, cultural and ecological environment. Some secrets are best when they are kept as they are.

      All of Europe is being destroyed because of this, it’s infuriating. Europeans need to stop promoting tourism, which is bringing mass immigration to the region, which will dilute the culture and people and erase us permanently.

      I completely agree, living in Amsterdam. Tourism also goes far beyond the ‘booming’ city center.. Can’t wait to move to the countryside.

      They also contribute to the economy. The bad part is that most do not integrate into the local culture and lifestyle, they want to live like home, but here.

      @@Danutzz2010 Everyone contributes to the economy at some point, the problem is when "expat relocation" (aka immigration) becomes a mass phenomenon, up to the point that it affects negatively the local economy (housing prices) and wipes out the authenticity of a place. Regarding the integration of Westerners (Americans, Europeans, Australians..) I disagree. They do integrate (contrary to third-world Asians) and bring a positive mix to the local society.
