About the destination

Zaragoza, capital of the Aragon region in northeastern Spain, is a vibrant city where Roman, Moorish, Jewish, and Christian heritage blend seamlessly with a youthful, contemporary atmosphere. Straddling the banks of the Ebro River, it’s best known for its monumental Basilica del Pilar, whose elegant domes dominate the skyline. Strolling around the historic center, you’ll find lively plazas, grand avenues, and narrow streets filled with tapas bars, traditional cafés, and street art that reflects the city’s creative side. The city’s must-see attractions span over 2,000 years of history. Visit the Basilica del Pilar to admire its baroque interior, climb one of its towers for panoramic views, and gaze at frescoes by Francisco de Goya, who was born nearby. Just a short walk away stands La Seo Cathedral, a fascinating mix of Gothic, Mudéjar, Renaissance, and Baroque styles. For a glimpse of Zaragoza’s Islamic past, explore the Aljafería Palace, an 11th-century fortress and one of Spain’s most important examples of Moorish architecture, now home to the regional parliament. Food is central to the Zaragoza experience. The city is famous for its tapas culture—head to El Tubo, a maze of alleyways in the old town, to sample croquetas, jamón, grilled mushrooms, and local specialties paired with regional wines from nearby Cariñena and Somontano. Don’t miss traditional Aragonese dishes such as ternasco (roast lamb) and migas (fried breadcrumbs with chorizo and garlic), or end your meal with a sweet “fruta de Aragón,” candied fruit covered in chocolate. Zaragoza is also a city of festivals and modern culture. In mid-October, the Fiestas del Pilar transform the city with parades, concerts, fireworks, and floral offerings to the Virgin of the Pillar. For a more contemporary side, explore the area of the 2008 Expo along the river, with its striking bridges and cultural venues, or visit museums dedicated to Goya and contemporary art. Well connected by high-speed train to Madrid and Barcelona, Zaragoza makes an ideal city-break destination or a rewarding stop on a longer journey through Spain.
