Pamplona Travel Guide

Pamplona is a city rife with history and tradition, heart-pumping action and soul-stirring serenity. With the mountainous regions to its North, Pamplona sits in a picturesque valley on the banks of the Arga, in the region of Navarre.

The landscape of Pamplona is dominated by gothic churches, cathedrals and basilicas. Prominent among them are San Sernin, San Nicolas and Saint Ignatius of Loyola. You will find an awe-inspiring range of architecture ranging from gothic and baroque to post renaissance and classic-revival styles in these places of worship.

The central building in the city is the Citadel or the fortress that displays Spanish renaissance military architecture at its best. With its moats, parks, pavilions and exhibitions, the Citadel will enthral visitors with its majesty and beauty. This is a must visit sight that you have to include on your trip to this city.

The town is famous for the bull running event during the San Fermin festival in July every year. Thrill seekers from around the world congregate to participate in and watch this amazing custom. Based on the tradition of taking bulls from their corrals and herding them towards the arenas for bull fighting matches, this event has developed into a communal sporting activity.

Areas of the city are cordoned off and bulls are let lose to run at breakneck speeds down the streets to their destined bull ring. Along the way, daredevils jump in front of the bulls and race ahead of them, making them charge behind them in a fierce pursuit. The saner spectators watch from the sidelines, screaming when they see someone get trampled or cheering the ones that jump to safety.

There are fireworks, wood chopping contests, dancing and music to enliven the proceedings. Later, you can watch the matadors take on the mighty bulls in the majestic arena that is the third largest in the world.

There’s a lot more to Pamplona than running with the bulls, or encierro, as the Spanish call it. Pamplona is also a city of parks. The 17^th century Taconera Park has beautiful walkways to ramble about in and sculptures to admire. There's also a Japanese garden and a park by the riverside.
