Hiking
The Children's Fountain in Pontevedra is one of the most emblematic points of the city. It is located in the Glorieta de Compostela and is known for its sculpture of two girls waiting for a boy who is drinking at the fountain. Although it is popularly called “the children's fountain”, its official name was established in 1950 because the Portuguese Way passed through it. An interesting visit if you are in the area! 😊

On the ground it says that Pontevedra gives water to passers-by (pilgrims). This has historical reasons, because Pontevedra has many fountains. It is one of the most famous monuments in the city.
