Sitting on a small hill between the Mandeo river, just before it widens and flows into the Ria de Betanzos, and it's smaller tributary, the Mendo, the historic town of Betanzos is situated approximately 20Km south east of the city of La Coruna.
The town has a well preserved old sector with narrow streets and a number of notable buildings including three gothic churches, and a museum located in a 16th century convent.
One notable attraction is the Parque Pasatiempo, built at the end of the 19th century to reflect what was going on the world, with the help of statues, reliefs, and ponds. This was effectively an early theme park.
You will also find a good selection of bars and restaurants offering local cuisine.
