(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Start the tour at the Bull Run Monument. The hyper-realistic artwork depicting a group of young men being pursued by the bulls is dedicated to the famous tradition of Bull Run which takes over the entire city each July. The statue of high artistic value captures the wild energy and excitement of the daring race in beautiful detail.
Palacio de Navarra
Next, walk by Navarra Palace, the seat of government. One of its two façades overlooks the 25-meter-tall Monument to the Fueros, symbolizing History, Justice, Autonomy, Peace, and Work. This symbolic monument, with the powerful and solemn neo-classical palace in the background, is one of the most photographed sites in the city.
Continue to stroll across the Castle Square. The large open space ringed by old, attractive buildings is the center of Pamplona's social life and the scene of important events. One interesting fact is that it was Ernest Hemingway’s favorite place where he based his famous novel ‘The Sun Also Rises’ when travelling to this city in 1923. Of all the highlights of the square, check out the photo-worthy Town Hall, which dominates a corner of the square and stands out for its intricate classical façade featuring intriguing statues on its top and entrance.
