I agree that Pamplona is a beautiful city, green and calm to take a walk.
I do think the same.

Hi there,
You have done a good job. Are you sure that the Kings of Navarre were crowned? We were a small Kingdom in the middle of nowhere……, We did not have the right to crown our kings. They were enthroned, yes, in fact, they were placed on a shield and raised by the “Infanzones” (the navarrese nobility). Those would cry “Real, Real, Real” (Royal, Royal, Royal), and the King would then throw some coins from up there to the subjects…..This action meant to symbolise the King’s commitment to ensure people’s welfare……. And that’s all from CNAI. Love, Fauna, Flora and Merry Weather.

We agree with the coments, but we think they´ve forgotten the mood at strets, is frequent some exhibitions in Saint Charles Street, and Jazz Festival in Saints José Sqare and citadella.
Its very recommendable to walk through the Arga River side and through Vuelta Aranzadi, is like an samall village where people work the land.
There are some art galeries in Navarrería, Mayor Street, Etxauri that are worth to visit.
There are some interesting and historical buildings like singing school, in Mayor Street that has a beautiful cloister.
Some beautifull churches like Clarisas in Los Ajos Sqare.
It´s very recomendable to visit Citadella underground built to defend the walls.

I’ve really liked your article about the walk around the city because I think that Pamplona is not only Sanfermines but really beautiful walks and parks in the middle or around where we can enjoy many moments if the weather allows us to do it.
