    Pazos are typical Galician manor houses from the 16th or 18th centuries. They are buildings built to order by bourgeois Galician people. In these pazos, you can travel along history and recall the dresses, traditions and furnishings of the Modern Ages.

    Some of the pazos are private property, so they are closed to the public. Likewise, the visitor can only enjoy the outside pazo.

    Others are open to the public, and some of these are available for accommodation. One example of a pazo restored as a hotel is the Pazo da Buzaca, in Moraña. It is a wonderful manor house composed of three buildings. It has rooms decorated in different styles, a dining room with fireplace and a library. It is a luxury building for lovers of history and nature.

    Others, as the Pazo de Lourizán hold different exhibitions. In a few words, pazos are regal buildings.
