Internet Cafe 2
by gordonilla
This facility is very small and boasts only 5 positions and 1 telephone kiosk - however it also seems to be a very busy photocopy business with builders, students and others always using the facilities.
It seems that it is open 7 days per week and has quite long hours even on a Sunday.
located at 19 Calle del Angel in one of the side streets of the older city centre - situated between Calle de la Florida and San Nicolas - leading towards Plaza de Maria Pita.
World Class Aquarium
by weewatty
Having been to numerous renowned aquariums throughout the world i would have to rate this one as being up there with the best of them.
Excellent displays and be sure not to miss the deep sea sections which is located downstairs.
Outside they have pools with seals and another with octupuses, really worth a visit and a good reward for taking the time to walk up to the top of the headland where the aquarium finnisterrae is located just next to the torre de hercules. I think it cost 8 euros each entrance, good value for money.
p20's La Coruna province web
by p20
La Coruña is a province of Galicia . Galicia is an Autonomous Comunity (Spain is divided into autonomous comunities, equivalent to states in the U.S.).
I live in Santiago de Compostela ,which is the capital of Galicia (in the northwest of Spain).
Santiago is a very touristic place.
In Santiago you can visit:
-Saint Jaques Cathedral,
-a lot of churches,
-various historical places
-two seminaries
-the old town,
-a large amount of museums,
-Alameda park
-and the university.
The picture in the center, somekind of big doll is called the "Coca", this is the old one. It's a "cabezudo" (there are 2 cabezudos and near 3 "gigantones" , much bigger, you can see them just the 25th of July at 12 o'clock in the Quintana Sq.
But there are much more places to visit .Like:
-the bigest "horreo" in Carnota,
-the West Towers in Catoira,
-the "dolmen" in Axeito (and in various places too),
-and more.
All them in this picture.

IMPORTANT: Galicia, as I have just said, is located in the northwest of Spain. To the South it's Portugal (remember that Portugal belongs to a different time zone, while in Spain it's GMT +1, in Portugal it's GMT).
So when you wake up at 7 you feel like it's 6 o'clock. So take this on account when planning.
