The best photos of Zaragoza aren't always at the obvious landmarks. Sure, Basilica del Pilar and Aljaferia Palace will fill your camera roll, but the real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, and the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot. Seek out Puente de Piedra for the kind of shot that no one else is posting.
Aragon's capital on the River Ebro, where Roman, Islamic, and Christian heritage converge beneath the domes of a monumental basilica.
