I fell in love with the people and city in general. People were friendly to me as a non Spanish speaker who tried but probably didn’t do so well with pronunciation. The city is very walkable! I did about 27000 steps per day. Beautiful scenery. Biking and running are pretty easy too.

Large section forbidden to vehicles, so easy to walk around. Lots of restaurants and shops. Siesta is not a myth, many of the shops close during the day and don't reopen until later. Don't wait until Sunday to buy any souvenirs, everything is closed. Always something interesting around the next corner. Don't stick to the main roads and paths, duck down each tiny alley and there's something to see.

Unfortunately we got there too late at night and left very early in the morning. Not enough time to give a fair description. However all the people that we encountered were very friendly and helpful.

Pontevedra es muuucho más pequeña de lo que parece, en un día puedes recorrerla tranquilamente viendo con detenimiento todos sus rincones. Además es muy cómodo andar por ella pues prácticamente todo el casco histórico es peatonal, y es más fácil disfrutar de su historia.

Wonderful city! Wish I had known... I would've planned on staying longer. Pontevedra itself is lovely and then there are multiple bus trips which are easy to take to the coast - Combarro, O Grove etc.

The old town is tucked away from the main road routes but is well worth a visit and there were hardly any tourists. We found a place to sit outside and eat octopus and prawns in Rua Real. The museum is marvelous. A well laid out display of paintings from the 20th and 19th centuries by Spanish, mainly Galician painters. There's an impressive hoard of gold from the Iron Age too. We also went across the river to the Sculpture Island. It has pieces by some well known contemporary artists but needs a bit of looking after as some exhibits are overgrown and going into the Labyrinth should be avoided. (There is no public loo around.)
