On 23rd of February we went to La Coruña, to see the ocean, but Adam's phone didn't like it :)La Coruña is the second largest city in Galicia in northwestern Spain. The city is also the capital of A Coruña Province.
The city is recognizable by the site of the Roman Tower of Hercules, which is a lighthouse that has been in continuous operation for nearly 2,000 years.
The Tower of Hercules is an ancient Roman lighthouse on a peninsula about 2.4 kilometers. The name Corunna is said to be derived from the ancient columna, meaning column. The structure is 55 metres (180 ft) tall and overlooks the North Atlantic coast of Spain. It is almost 1900 years old, was rehabilitated in 1791, is the oldest Roman lighthouse still used as a lighthouse. Unfortunately The Tower was under renovation on this time...
