Either you go dead or you go alive... you decide

From the A Miranda viewpoint the views are impressive, you can see the port and town of Cariño, Ortigueira and its estuary and also Estaca de Bares, which is the northernmost point of the Iberian Peninsula.
«To San Andrés de Teixido I was dead or I was not alive» . This is the most famous saying of this mythical sanctuary where the apostle of Jesus, Saint Andrew, is venerated.
Legend has it that Saint Andrew was sad because his temple was lonely and had very little devotion, in contrast to that of Santiago Apóstol which was overflowing with pilgrims and faith, so he asked the Lord for help, one day the Lord appeared to him. Almighty in the company of Saint Peter. Seeing Saint Andrew so discouraged, they promised him that all mortals would come to his temple, and whoever did not do so while alive would do so after his death, reincarnated as an animal.
It became the second pilgrimage center in all of Galicia. Another legend tells how Saint Andrew ran aground on the cliffs, turning his boat into a rock that today is known as Saint Andrew's boat. In compensation, God granted him this sanctuary.
Cape Ortegal is 613 m high, making it the highest cliffs in southern and central Europe, only surpassed by some fjords in Norway.
The lighthouse was built in 1984 and is 12.70 m high and 3 m in diameter. In the sea you can see dolphins, pilot whales and even whales. The presence of barnacles and schools of fish make this area a dangerous workplace for seafarers.
Of course, the place is a must-see and will surely surprise you.
