About Zaragoza
Zaragoza sits roughly halfway between Madrid and Barcelona yet sees a fraction of their tourist traffic, despite the riverside Basílica del Pilar and the Moorish Aljafería palace ranking among Spain's most impressive sights. Its relatively low crowds and easy high-speed rail access from both major cities make it a smart addition for groups looking to see something beyond the obvious.
