Leon is famous for its carnic pork products such as chorizo, salchichon, morcillas... You can try that at any local restaurant or buy them to take away in any butcher or even at local souvenir shops. The one of the photo is at Calle Ancha in a corner at the middle of the street.

This is the main pedestrian street in Leon and the place to come if you wanna do some shopping. You will find clothes, souvenirs, books... and a lively nightlife too!
It goes from the Cathedral to the Santo Domingo Square.

These typical biscuits from Astorga can be found also in other villages of Leon.
In each box come about 12 of them, costing around 3-4 euros. They come in plastic bags, so are easy to keep.
