Camino de santiago - way & destination - 2010 calendar
THE RELIGIOUS OR LEGENDARY SAGA:
El Camino de Santiago, or in English The Way of Saint James , is the pilgrimage route to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain, where legend has it that the remains or relics of Jesus' apostle, Saint James the Elder or the Greater, lie. The Camino has existed as a Christian pilgrimage route for well over 1,000 years and there is evidence that there was a pre-Christian route as well. Throughout the Medieval period it was one of the most important Christian pilgrimages undertaken. Indeed, it was one of only three pilgrimages which could result in complete expiation of all sins the others being to Rome and to Jerusalem. And, as Jerusalem was for much of the time after the 7th century under Muslim control, Jerusalem was generally not available as a destination.
