Burgos - Paseo del Espolón
The Paseo del Espolón, the favorite promenade of the people of Burgos, extends along the Río Arlanzón from the Puente de Santa María to the Puente de San Pablo, shaded by plane-trees and lined with cafes and shops. It is rather quieter in the gardens parallel with the Paseo on the banks of the river. Here visitors will see sights unusual in a city - the river flowing quietly by between meadowland and banks of reeds, frogs croaking their noisy concert, perhaps even a shepherd driving his sheep along the meadows.
