Burgos lies along the Arlanzón River, on the northern edge of Spain’s Meseta, where the broad Castilian plateau surrounds a compact historic centre. Its Gothic Cathedral of Saint Mary, begun in 1221 and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, dominates the old city with its elaborate spires and richly carved façades. Burgos is also an important stop on the Camino de Santiago’s French Way, while the Museum of Human Evolution presents discoveries from the nearby Atapuerca archaeological sites.
