RESPITE AT THE CROSSROADS
Two main routes to Santiago de Compostela join here at
the village of Puente la Reina in Navarra, northern Spain,
whose 11th-century Romanesque bridge still carries
pilgrims over the Arga River. For footsore pilgrims from
France, England, or even farther afield, arrival at this
confluence marked the beginning of the last stretch,
although Santiago still lies 400 miles to the west.
