Spain, El Ferrol Port, Gardens of Pazo de Marina, City of Betanzos, Sept 2021

El Ferrol Sea Port in Spain, the Province of a Coruna, in Galicia, Ferrol is located on the Atlantic Coast in Northwestern Spain. Spanish General Franciso Franco was born here in 1892. And since bagpipes are one of the Traditional instruments in El Ferrol Spain, we were thrilled to see them at the Port. I am cruising with the MSC Cruise Line, single and in my senior years! Ha, Ha! MSC did an outstanding job at keeping everyone safe during the Pandemic, lots of restrictions in place, but I completely appreciated the extra effort this cruise line has put into making cruises available again and keeping everyone safe.
I visited the "Pazo de Marinan" Gardens, which is located on the banks of the Betanzos and Mandeo rivers, in the area of the province of Coruna called "Marinnas dos Condes"
The Manor House, also called Palaces has its own Family Chapel. Noblemen back in the day, would surround their Manors with these huge cypress trees so people would know where they lived.
Our Tour Guide was AMAZING! Fluent in Spanish, English, Italian, German
Then it was onto the city of Betanzos. Igrexa de San Francisco or Church of Saint Francis in the historic town Betanzos, Galicia, Spain.
We actually visited three Churches in total, ,
Santa Maria de Azogue
Iglesia de San Francisco
Iglesia de Santiago, The church of Saint James
We also learned about the history of the town and about famous Juan María and Jesús García Naveira, known as the García Brothers Naveira ,
They were Spanish businessmen known and loved for their Charitable works, which included several public facilities, schools and welfare institutions.
We passed by the -Forte de Diana Cazadora --'Diana Cazadora' fountain, in the square 'Hermanos García Naveira' in the town of Betanzos, Galicia, Spain
And stopped for a coffee. Wonderful day out with the MSC Cruise Line Excursion.
