The province of Pontevedra is full of various legends related with different characters: from witches to werewolfs or "mouras".

Most of these legends come from the inlands, telling us magic stories that, sometimes, will scare us and others will fascinate us. For example, there are legends related with petroglyphs where women went to conceive babies, or with the "mouras" (bewitched, very beautiful character) who appeared to men who felt in love with them.

There are also legends in the coast, so some women went to a specific beach to get pregnant.
There are many others, do not hesitate to look for them. There is a magic world beyond our own.

Why lamprey? Lamprey is a delicious fish that lives in the southern rivers of the Pontevedra province. It is a tasty fish cooked with its own black sauce. It is cooked in diferent ways but the most delicious is the recipe that came from France.

Romans settled in Pontevedra, fell in love with the fish and tried to take it to Italy.

During the last weekend of April, in Arbo (Pontevedra, Galicia), there is is a fiesta in honour of the fish. People can taste different recipes made from lamprey with a traditional wine of this area.
Apart from the fiesta, tourists can taste this dish in many restaurants of the region, one of them is A Rula in Arbo.

Do not miss LAMPREY.
I love it.
