Breathtaking and Majestic El Pilar is absolutely stunning—both inside and out. The architecture is grand, the interior is peaceful and awe-inspiring, and the views from the towers are unforgettable. A place filled with history, beauty, and spiritual calm. A true gem of Zaragoza and a must-visit for anyone in the city.
A most exquisite building dedicated to Saint Mary who appeared on a pillar which is now enclosed but you can kneel before it and touch part of it. The soaring ceiling and beautiful sculptures are breathtaking. Each of the chapels has its own glorious artworks. The chapel at the back of the church is extraordinary with a separate open roof structure. A true gem.
The Cathedral-Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar in Zaragoza is a breathtaking masterpiece of Baroque architecture and a deeply spiritual landmark. With its grand domes, stunning frescoes by Goya, and peaceful riverside setting, it’s a must-visit for both art and history lovers. Don’t miss the panoramic views from the tower and the nearby Puente de Piedra for perfect photos.
Simply mammoth size of a Cathedral....hard to photograph it was so large but got some shots on a stormy night from the bridge. Beautiful tiling on roof. Beautifully carved altar and wonderfully cool inside. Sadly a couple of the towers were being renovated but understandable.
Such a beautiful Basilica. Seeing the Pilar where our Lady billocated was so special. We timed it well for Holy Mass. you do need an hour to explore afterwards. Plenty of priests were there to hear confessions. Architecture was spectacular, the paintings, sculptures- a pure joy to be there. Plenty of Capella for praying along. Rosary after 12 mass.
The church was absolutely stunning, with its magnificent architecture leaving me speechless. The intricate stonework and towering spires created an awe-inspiring silhouette against the sky. As I walked through the grand entrance, I was captivated by the rich history that enveloped the space; it felt as though time itself had been preserved within these walls. The ornate stained glass windows cast vibrant colors across the interior, illuminating the beautifully carved wooden pews. I found myself particularly mesmerized by the elaborate details on the facade, where every chiselled figure and decorative element seemed to tell a story of its own. It was an experience that left a lasting impression on my heart.
A very beautiful basilica, and definitely worth visiting if you're in the area or happen to be passing through. However, I wouldn't make a special trip to Zaragoza just for this and a few other sites.
It was, without a doubt, an exceptionally impressive church. Unlike many others that I have visited in various cities, this one stood out with its distinctive architectural features and unique atmosphere, setting it apart from the more familiar structures I had previously encountered.

We love Spain and Moorish architecture so this was a most enjoyable visit on a roasting day. Don't forget to look up at the amazing ceilings....bit hot for visiting the gardens which may potentially may only have consisted of a number of trees within some dusty paths. There was some Goya art there as the official exhibition is closed. Not art to my personal taste but I appreciate he is a local hero.
This used to be a fortified Islamic medieval palace built between 1065 and 1081 that eventually housed the regional parliament of Aragon. I was amazed by the intricate mixtilinear arches and springers, with arabesques over a large area. Definitely worth the money (not expensive) and time spent there. Notable sights include the Golden Hall, Mosque, Santa Isabel Courtyard, Palace of Peter IV and Palace of the Catholic Monarchs. When I was there, Goya’s works were also temporarily exhibited here, with the Goya Museum being renovated. So it was a 2-in-1 visit.
The place looked beautiful, and definitely is very cool from the outside. However, we were unable to go in because the tickets are not working from the online system. There was a long line, and we went to buy our tickets online, but definitely with the mobile device it was not working. It seems to be fairly typical that many of the websites in Spain don't work. 😞😵‍💫
Interesting place with lots of history. It's visible that they still need to do some restoration as half of the building does not represent yet how it's used to be before. This place is cool to go to see Arabic style in Spanish architecture. Due to maintenance works in the museum of Goya, some of his works are exhibited in this palace along with other items that belong to this palace.
1. Before my visit, it was not clear to me whether tickets had to be purchased in advance or not, so as not to waste time in queues. I visited Aljaferia Palace on a Friday afternoon in September. There was no queue for tickets. The ticket office is a small booth outside the walls of the Aljaferia, on the side of Calle de los Disputados street. 2. As with many Spanish attractions in Zaragoza, the explanations are perfect in Spanish :-) , but there is no information in English. I had installed the Aljaferia Palace app. This app contains numbers, but unfortunately these numbers do not correspond to the numbers found in the various rooms. Well, how difficult is it to do something properly... 3. Coming back to the tickets. Apparently, you can take guided tours in English during the summer. September is no longer summer, so guided tours were only available in Spanish. Try booking a ticket in advance on the website, and I wish you luck understanding it... I see online tickets for locals, for students, for all kinds of groups of people, but not for a foreign (English-speaking) tourist who wants a regular visit without extras. Has anyone ever taken a critical look at this booking web page? 4. Although the style is also Moorish, it is not comparable to, for example, the Alhambra in Granada, which is much more beautifully integrated into the landscape and has much more beautiful gardens, water features, and buildings.
It is a magnificent building to visit especially on a Rainey day. Though our visit coincided with a film crew on site. Restricting locations and sound levels. As we had just arrived we could not come back another day. We were still charged full price to enter.
An absolutely amazing piece of history not too far from the centre of Zaragoza. I booked the English tour for 9 euros and it was well worth the money. I would recommend the tours because you will get a lot more of the history of the palace and you will enjoy the visit more.
One of the most interesting archaeological heritage buildings that shows our shared cultural and artistic links of Aragon and Spain with the Muslim world while showing the evolution and its later role in Christian time as a royal fortress since Ferdinand and Isabella. If it was located in France or Italy it would have been visited 10 times more. A hidden gem worth visiting and cherishing and discovering all its treasures.

The park is simply fantastic; spending a day there is a great pleasure for the whole family. The fresh air and the river create a wonderfully warm atmosphere. If you happen to see the birds perform, you're in luck. Come and see.
It is certainly a noteworthy and highly recommended experience in Zaragoza. Initially, one might be taken aback by the 19€ entrance fee for the hike. Nevertheless, after traversing the path, it quickly becomes apparent that it is worth every penny. We visited in October and enjoyed delightful weather. I can imagine that it might be quite warm during the summer months. A small suggestion: opt for the longer hiking route instead of the shortcut, provided you are physically capable, as you will not be disappointed.
Actually, during this photoshoot, we were also driven away. The location itself was quite remote and inconvenient to access—it required about one half an hour of driving from the city center—though the scenery there was truly beautiful. What was infuriating was that just when we were about to leave, an elderly staff member angrily warned us that we shouldn't wear "such Japanese-style clothing" and that we should "wear normal clothes." It wouldn't have been a big deal initially, but he kept pressing us, and that made me angry. I explained clearly that this is, in fact, Chinese-style clothing. But he responded with a dismissive expression, saying, "I don't care which country it's from—you just can't dress like this here." He went on to say a lot of very disrespectful things. We had already explained that other staff outside had allowed us to enter, yet he still confronted us angrily behind our backs. I just want to say: you can be upset if our unconventional clothing disturbed your work, but you shouldn’t discriminate against a character like this. Even if the character I’m cosplaying isn’t a good person, we’re all here out of love for the craft, investing our own time, money, and effort—some of us even traveled four hours from other cities just to be there. In that moment, I nearly lost my temper and felt like cursing at him, just like Xue Yang would have. My friend, cosplaying as Jin Guangyao, probably noticed the look on my face and stepped in to calmly talk to the other party. Anyway, with all that happened, and considering the remote location despite its beauty, I said I won’t be going back again. ---
Absolutely wonderful place to visit. The only things I was missing were the better indications of the pathways. We spend more than 3 hours there photographing and enjoying the beautiful nature. The light was amazing in the morning. It is not suitable for people with wheelchair. Also, there are quite tough parts on the path going up and down the stairs.
I went there for the Spa and the termal waters after I ws on a trip through the Scandinavian and Baltic countries. We'll, it is very sad but there is no a positive way to compare them. This place was more expensive, the water was either very cold or lukewarm and the lack of maintenance was unbelievable, I mean the little mosaics titles were loose in the pools floor. Some of the water taps were not even working, but of course everything was about to be fixed the next day. Typical Spaniard answer. And, even tho the entrance is pricey for what it is the charge you extra for a pool cap.
WOW!! Allow a whole day for this place. Good walking conditions with correct footwear. Lots of waterfalls means lots of damp and slippy areas..but worth it. And don't forget to stop and see the raptors..amazing!! Trying to edit my post 🤞Also, you can follow the path down to the waterfall and go behind it! Follow the steps down to the cave, it's well lit and has handrails. Not for small toddlers or prams and pushchairs...and probly not good for dogs unless they trained in cave rescue!😂but the view from behind the waterfall is sooo beautiful and breathtaking and wet!! Wear your hood up, no umbrellas, you will need both hands to take photos!
Amazing area. If you are in the area, you need to go here. The nature is incredible with tons of green, lots of waterfalls and some caves. A ticket costs around 18 euros but was definitely worth it. The path is around 7km. The monastery is also pretty impressive and free to visit.
This park is worth every penny. About 2.5 hours of absolute nature magic. Recommended early morning, opens at 09:00 and avoid weekends. Bring a picnic as there are nice places to do it, take your time and enjoy nature. Buy your tickets online and bring a professional camera because you will get some amazing shots.

El Tubo is such a cool place. The locals are so friendly. We met some great people and had nice conversations with so many different personalities. If you want tapas and a drink, El Tubo is THE place to visit in Zaragoza!
Fantastic place to visit. So many tapas bars, restaurants, bars. Great vibe at night. Great value . Couldn't believe how cheap it was.
Has to be visited. Typical tapas bar in the Zaragoza oldest part
Really busy place to be! Bars aplenty! The later the better!
Got here early, must places closed, lots of bars and tapas but must go after 7pm
Well worth a visit to this unique area

This is a magnificent and stunning piece of architecture and art, no less than any other churches of this style, with the choir in the centre, but it is far less crowded and expensive as in other more popular cities in Spain. No long queues to enter, no booking in advance, and one can stroll leisurely and admire every detail. I am so glad that I stop by Zaragoza.
The Catedral del Salvador de Zaragoza, commonly known as La Seo, is an absolute masterpiece that genuinely captivated me. While many visitors flock to the more famous Basílica del Pilar, overlooking La Seo would be a grave mistake. This magnificent temple boasts stunning architecture, with its intricate domes, numerous chapels, and breathtaking art creating an atmosphere of profound beauty. It's immediately clear why this cathedral holds the prestigious title of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Every corner reveals centuries of history and artistic brilliance, making it an unforgettable experience that truly stands apart.
This is a must see. It’s just stunning. Try time it for mass. A lot of tourists are walking around, looking at all the art periods, Capellas. The audio guide is necessary, they’ve a children’s audio guide too. The staff are so kind & patient. It’s mostly wheelchair accessible except the gift shop & tapestries. The beauty & building for the glory of God is a feast for your eyes. Again the ticket here can be also used at ‘the glass rosary’ You’ll need more time than you think in this cathedral. Look at the tapestries. If you like art this is for you.
This was the best historical site we saw in Zaragoza. It covers several periods, invasions & conversions. The audio guide for children and another for adult work really well. Lots of language options. It’s mostly wheelchair friendly but the gift shop, up one step and the tapestry’s are up several flights of old broad stairs. Everyone is so friendly. The detail of each little chapel can be a little overwhelming at times. The effort, skills & expense put into them. The personal Family history.
Pretty amazing place, but quite crowded on the weekend. It's also closed around lunch time so you can't really go in and take advantage of smaller crowds. All that said, it's not worth taking a special trip to Zaragoza just for this and a couple other churches that are around. If you're in the area, or you're passing through, you definitely should visit.
The cathedral in Zaragoza is magnificent! I was here during advent and saw some nice decoration.
Very nice and important place to see. The cathedral has some magnificent architecture and decour, also there is a wonderful tapestry museum inside which I would say is a must see for any history and decour enthusiast. The visit includes a great audioguide in multiple languages.
One of the most impressive cathedrals in Spain, also constantly underrated and overshadowed by El Pilar for obvious reasons, it retains a big artistic value in unique from the wood altarpiece to the choir or all the baroque interiors, plus the mudejar tiles on the façade or the collection of rich medieval tapestries. It reflects the role of Zaragoza as witness in a crossroads of civilizations from Roman to Visigoth, muslim, and Christian again in Romanesque, Gothic, renaissance, unique mudejar with arab reminiscences, baroque, neoclassic, etc all in one single building

The Plaza de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, or simply Plaza del Pilar, is truly the beating heart of Zaragoza and a place that leaves an indelible impression. It's not merely a square; it's an expansive open-air museum, a vibrant social hub, and a spiritual center all rolled into one. Dominated by the awe-inspiring Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, with its numerous domes and towering spires, the plaza immediately commands attention. The sheer scale and architectural grandeur are magnificent, and seeing the basilica up close, especially with the intricate frescoes by Goya inside, is an experience that transcends mere sightseeing. Beyond the basilica, the plaza is surrounded by other significant landmarks like La Seo Cathedral, a stunning blend of architectural styles, and the beautiful Renaissance-era La Lonja. The Fuente de la Hispanidad, a fountain uniquely shaped like a map of Latin America, adds a modern touch and a sense of global connection. Whether it's the lively atmosphere during local festivals or the serene calm of an early morning stroll, the Plaza del Pilar offers something for everyone. It's a place to soak in history, admire artistic masterpieces, and truly feel the pulse of Zaragoza. No visit to the city would be complete without spending ample time exploring this extraordinary public space.
A great plaza flanked either side with glorious churches and beautiful architecture and restaurants on the other side. At one end there is a fabulous fountain that looks like a cracked iceberg. There are lots of water outlets for filling up your bottle but no public toilets. The closest is at the covered market.
Very spacious and beautifully designed square for the public. It didn't feel crowded at all, and there was always an opportunity for photos. No photos are allowed inside the basilica or the cathedral. You can get a very good view of the buildings from the stone bridge. We captured a few nice photos when the sun was going down.
Massive square in the most central spot of Zaragoza! The plaza of our lady of the pillar is in front of the cathedral with same name and has lots of space to walk and take pics, also there are many restaurants and cafes around the square and even under the square! There are stairs to go down. Recommend it!
It is the busiest central area in Zaragoza, located in front of the Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar. Additionally, several historic buildings and important landmarks are situated around it. During the Fiestas del Pilar in October, various events and performances, including La Ofrenda de Flores, are held here.
The Plaza of Our Lady of the Pillar (Plaza de Nuestra Señora del Pilar) in Zaragoza, Spain, is a magnificent public square that stands as a testament to the city's rich cultural and religious heritage. This iconic plaza is not only the heart of Zaragoza but also one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Spain, drawing visitors from all over the world. Dominating the plaza is the stunning Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar, an architectural masterpiece that is both awe-inspiring and spiritually significant. The basilica's grandeur, with its multiple domes and towering spires, creates a breathtaking skyline that is best appreciated from the plaza itself. The interior is equally impressive, adorned with exquisite frescoes by Francisco Goya and other renowned artists, as well as the revered statue of Our Lady of the Pillar. The plaza itself is a vibrant and lively space, surrounded by a harmonious blend of historical and modern architecture. It's a perfect place to soak in the local culture, with numerous cafes and restaurants offering delightful Spanish cuisine and the opportunity to relax and people-watch. The square is often bustling with activity, from local festivals and cultural events to street performers and artisans showcasing their crafts. In addition to the basilica, the plaza is home to several other significant landmarks, including the Cathedral of the Savior (La Seo) and the magnificent Goya Monument. These sites offer further insight into Zaragoza's rich history and artistic legacy. The beautiful fountains and well-maintained gardens add to the charm of the plaza, making it a pleasant place to stroll and enjoy the surroundings. Visiting the Plaza of Our Lady of the Pillar is a truly enriching experience. Whether you are drawn by the spiritual significance, the architectural beauty, or the vibrant atmosphere, this plaza offers something for everyone. It is a must-see destination that encapsulates the essence of Zaragoza, leaving a lasting impression on all who visit.
The Basilica del Pilar is huge and beautiful. We were no able to go inside because it's already close. Hopefully, when we go back again to Zaragoza, we will make sure that we can go inside.

Sights & Landmarks
Slide 1 of 8
You can get a panoramic view of Zaragoza's Casco Antiguo, including the Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar and the Río Ebro. After taking the elevator up, you need to climb more stairs. Since the elevator operates on a schedule, you might not be able to enter if you’re late. This place can be entered from the Río Ebro side, not from inside the Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar. The top is very narrow, accommodating only 5 to 6 people at a time.
Beware of the rude staff at the entrance! We were shocked how such an attitude is tolerated in a religious place like this! His face was extremely unpleasant. There was zero line and nobody at all at the entrance when we arrived so we went into the booth where we met the staff who was just immediately angry because we missed to see the information. He can, as any staff do, guide us and speak politely without a very unpleasant rude attitude so that we will understand the procedure. Besides, that is part of the job, guiding the visitors. Then when he brought us upstairs with the elevator he was extremely grumpy. I hope the management sees this review as such attitude is very improper. The view upstairs is definitely worth the visit. Beware of the steps that still have to be taken after the elevator. It is quite tiring. The viewing area is circular and very limited but luckily there were only 5 of us during our visit.
Ok view from the top, there is 2 levels the first the elevator goes to giving you outside views through a net. The 2nd level you climb stairs and the view is through glass so not good for photo taking. Probably worth doing if you get the pass.
Great views of the city and worth the €3 you pay. I had a hard time finding it. The guy in the church that works the room with the relics you have to pay to see was not the most helpful. I was told on the right. Well first of all, the big wooden doors were closed, and when I tried to push open seemed locked. There’s just one sign and then nothing. So to help you out, even though photos are not allowed in the church, I took some of only the sign and door. Winds were 26 mph today so I was scared! I swear the tower was moving! But it was worth it. The guy that takes your money and works the elevator may be up and you just wait for him to come down, pay him, and he takes you up. Then you can climb the stairs the rest of the way for the tip top view :)
In September 2024, the entrance fee is 5€. You go up the elevator and then climb the stairs to the top. The view is nice but there is nothing to do for more than 15 minutes. The best option is to buy tickets online, then you can choose the time of your visit.
4€ for a short visit to the tower to get a 360° view of the city.
Great experience: I really recommend to visit this place. The roofs of the cathedral look amazing! I have a fear of heights but I was able to do it
€3/4 euros to go up and see magnificent views of the city. You only get 15 minutes up there though.

Aquarium

Aquarium with a wide range of fish & other animals found in rivers throughout the world.
Slide 1 of 8
Had a great time here - well worth the €20 each. Excellent tanks and displays, no signs of distressed fish or animals. Much bigger than you might imagine from outside. Recommended.
Exceeded our expectations. One of the most amazing aquarium's I've ever been to. The diversity of species was phenomenal and the way you move through different regions of the world was fascinating.
Biggest fresh water aquarium in Europe! Very educational and some really beautiful fish and animals there.
This is not just an aquarium. There are other small animals there too. Theres no shark, in case like us, that was the one fish in demand. It’s a pleasant walk about. It’s not cheap for a two hour walk about. Semi wheelchair / buggy friendly. Takes a bit of time to figure out. We didn’t find the cafe. Plenty of pleasant seating outside if you have a picnic. Bring skates for some outside fun. The metro was simple to use but only half hour walk back to the old town.
I really enjoyed my visit to the Zaragoza Aquarium. It’s a calm and interesting place to spend a few hours, with a great variety of species and nice setups for each area. The atmosphere is peaceful, and it’s perfect to visit with kids or family. A great plan for an easy afternoon in the city.
Great aquarium! The exhibitions were so much fun and there was no waiting times at all. Definitely a great family experience for anyone in Zaragoza.
Visiting the Aquarium of Zaragoza was a beautiful experience with my family. I am not really an animal lover, but I truly enjoyed seeing how well the animals are treated with love and respect. At one point I even found myself watching an employee carefully cleaning the aquarium while another was feeding the fish, and it was fascinating to see the dedication behind the scenes. The kids had a wonderful time exploring and learning, which made the visit even more special.
Quite expensive for what you actually see. If you use the tourist bus to get there, be aware that it doesn't run between 1:30 and 4:30. It's a long walk back into Zaragoza, although it is a pleasant walk along the river

Museums
Archeological remains of a 1st-century AD Roman arena at the city's highest point, revealed in 1972.
Slide 1 of 8
Worth to go through the Ruta Caesaraugusta visiting the four archeological museums: the Forum, the Public Baths, the River Port and the Theater. Ruins from and old big Roman theater. Nice to read and listen the explanation about the glory and decadence of it. Need at least one hour to enjoy the visit. They have a small coffee shop inside.
I went to all four of the Caesaraugusta museums today starting with this one. I spent the 7 euros for all 4 museums at this location. The Theater is by far the most extensive of the museums and most of the displays have English. Many of the other museums do not have very much English. Anyway this is a great museum experience if you are in Zaragoza so you should check them out. The movie was done very well, so don't miss it. It is a great overview of the history that has been unearthed.
The museum, which opened in 2003, displays the remains of the ancient Roman theater along with various archaeological artifacts and models from that time. It offers a glimpse into the city of Caesaraugusta, an important city in the Hispania Citerior Tarraconensis province of the Roman Empire. The history of the Roman theater dates back to the 1st century AD and is considered one of the largest in the province. The remains were discovered in 1972, thanks to a neighbor who alerted the local newspaper about the archaeological site during construction.
This museum provided a cool summary of the theater and the entire city's Roman, Moorish, and Spanish/Catholic history and varying uses. It's interesting if you are a history buff or into museums. If you're not that interested, it may be boring. Most interpretive panels / information placards are Spanish-only, with only a handful having an English interpretation (or Braille). Many business hours are incorrect on Google Maps, due to local holidays or siesta.
We got the bundle ticket for all 4 museums, they are valid to the end of the year. We like the foro and teatro more, they were very informative and interesting to see. The port and pool were smaller and we didnt enjoy them as much. English is not common in Zaragoza, a Spanish dictionary might be helpful.
A really beautifully presented site with a lot of thought put into the visitor experience and journey. The site has been well conserved for future generations, so hopefully, it will be here for a long time to come.
Comprehensive exhibition telling the story of this once hidden marvel. At the time of writing, €7 covers this and 3 other Roman sites in the city.
Very interesting presentation of the historical background of the city. Part of a 4 location museum for which tickets are discounted if you visit all 4.

Art museum
Renaissance mansion housing paintings & prints by Francisco de Goya, plus other Spanish artists.
Slide 1 of 8
It is also known as Camón Aznar. Representing the historical and cultural heritage of the Zaragoza region, it showcases the Ibercaja Foundation's collection, spanning from the 15th century to modern times, with a focus on the works of Francisco de Goya. Notably, it features the complete series of Goya's etchings.
Excellent collection of Goya prints. There is a very interesting biographical video that is shown in different languages and also a cartoon about Goya’s work for children. Adult ticket 8€
Absolutely perfect experience. I dreamed of seem some of my favorite works of Goya and had the opportunity to enjoy them here. I would recommend at least one or two hours to visit if you focus mainly on Goya's work, but even more if you wanna take some time to see carefully everything else.
Today, the museum was free A very nice selection of Goya prints as well as 20th century Spanish School artists I had never seen before. Quality work on the third level. Also see through floors!
I understand why some people feel a bit disappointed after visiting this museum “It’s a Goya Museum and they barely have any paintings from Goya” people say. And it’s fair, the name of the museum implies that there must be paintings of Goya all around, right? In reality, it’s a rather small, but well organised museum with a temporary exhibition where you can see modern artist from Spain and some small amount of Goya’s paintings The museum is dedicated to Goya, his artistic heritage - hence artists that got inspired by him and Spanish painters who worked with him There is a floor dedicated to Goya’s sketches where visitors can learn about dark motives that he was expressing there, real and mythical events that took place Overall, it’s a nice museum to visit, one of the most famous museums in Zaragoza, not the cheapest one tho, so if you’re short on money, you may come back later on
I love the fact that all his engravings are housed there and can be studied as a whole. A magnificent - even though somewhat hard-to-take - experience, what with the sheer scale of his onslaught against ignorance and injustice and cruelty and superstition. More and more, I feel that the true significance of Goya, for me, is in his Caprichos and Disparates, etc., not the parade portraits - although these are magnificent, too. But if you admire the Goya of the Caprichos, you must also visit El Prado in Madrid and see his dark paintings...
Wow, we went to the Goya Museum and it was great. Have a much better appreciation and understanding of Goya now. No photos allowed inside. If you pass this way I would recommend you stop in.Also has paintings from contemporaries and students.
Una maravilla! Inolvidable! Don't miss it while in Zaragossa or Aragon. Like a time travel! Right now you can see works of marvelous Spanish painter Lita Cabellut too.

Fuente de la Hispanidad is one of the most impressive decorative water fountains that I have seen across my travels. Its location at one of the ends of the most famous plaza in Zaragoza is its first attraction. The volume of water going down its sloped front is definitely impressive.
An amazing fountain with a fantastic and unique design in the shape of South America. It is such an innovative and beautiful work and sits beautifully amongst the ancient monuments churches and building in the plaza.
Cozy cooling fountain, many locals bring their pets and children here. Nice view in the evening
A fascinating and unique monument in a lovely plaza adjacent to a magnificent Baroque cathedral. The monument's clever design illustrates the size and scope of the Spanish-speaking world in North and South America while also embodying the shared culture between Spain and its relatives across the Atlantic.
Fantastic fountain with the shape of south America.
U don’t want to miss it! Must see!
At night, illuminated fountains located at the end of the main square. An ideal place for an evening photo session. During the day, the view is less spectacular, as there are no lights on, although its design fits into the entire architecture of the square.
In my humble opinion it only spoils the historic center of the town...

Comfortable, quiet, clean and well-located with very nice staff
The hosts are quite nice! They welcomed me well and were willing to answer my questions. The room was good, it had a bed, a wardrobe, a table and chair and a bathroom. I only had a problem with the internet, it did not work well in any of my devices. I could not find a solution with the hosts, unfortunally this impacted my experience since I was having classes online. The light in the room could have been a bit brighter too.
Everything was good except for their soap and shampoo containers that were really hard to open when needed. The parking situation was not ideal.
A nice place to stay, close to the city centre. Friendly and helpful staff. Traditional 24 h. reception.
Clean, very well located, very friendly staff, very good value. No complaints at all.
Has free parking , heating in every room. Located close to all the main monuments of Zaragoza.
Lady at the reception was very nice, polite and friendly. Location is great
An excellent place to stay, well located close to the centre.
