A rich blend of the historic and modern, Zaragoza sits on the banks of the Ebro River. Stroll in the center of town near San Miguel's pedestrian ways or around the Plaza de los Sitios, where you find boutiques, markets and souvenir shops. A center for gastronomy, Zaragoza offers food and drink for every budget and taste. But tapas is a must! In 2008, Zaragoza hosted the International Exhibition; the Water Tower, Bridge Pavilion and River Aquarium show off of the city's avant-garde architecture.

Architectural ensemble of Gothic-Mudejar style included by UNESCO on the World Heritage List. Built from the 13th c. to the 14th. c. and enlarged from the 15th c. to the 18th. The most outstanding elements of the ensemble are its octagonal Tower, the Door of Tramontana, the Altarpiece with Doors of the High Altar, the altarpiece of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, altarpiece of St. Catherine of Alexandria and the Choir with the Gothic Organ. Panoramic Views from the mudejar tower.
Very interesting church. To go up the tower, you have to take the guided tour which is normally only in Spanish. However, on the day we went we were the only visitors and the guide did it in English for us. He was very informative and the tour lasted 1.5 hours.

I’ve been a fan of fire engines and equipment alike since I was a child, so stumbling upon this specialty museum was a real treat, taking me back to my childhood. The collection of fire trucks and other vehicles is fantastic. The equipment and uniforms throughout the decades is wonderful to see - you can even try on some firefighter clothing! The basement houses an extensive collection of rescue equipment (fire extinguishers, pumpers, etc.) and uniforms (paramedic, smoke jumpers, water rescue, mountain rescue, helicopter rescue, etc.). Other exhibits include detailed dioramas, photos of extraordinary fires in Zaragoza, badges, hats and paraphernalia from around the world and more. The staff are absolutely welcoming, informative and engaging - all current or former members of the fire department. I was their last visitor in mid-March just prior to their closing due to the coronavirus pandemic. I hope they will safely reopen in the not-too-distant future so they can continue to welcome fire fighting fans from around the world.
