The visitor to Santiago will find all kinds of scallops everywhere. But where the largest Vieira great den de Compostela is?
In the corner inside linking the facade of the Treasury and Silversmiths Gate there is a passage that leads to the Cathedral, which was decorated on the outside with a carved scallop, popularly known as La Concha. Both drew attention to the legend that holds the whole cathedral.
