Irun
We left from the town hall this time, heading towards the station, along the main road, Paseo Colón. A few meters from the starting point, we found some gardens with the bronze statue of Luis Mariano and in front of it, the statue of Pio Baroja, Luis Mariano (singer, tenor) and Pio Baroja (writer).

We continued on, and after crossing a bridge over some train tracks, we turned right and went straight ahead to the ecological park mentioned yesterday. There are different animals, especially birds.

We have enjoyed a pleasant stroll around the Plaiaundi ecological park; now it is time to go shopping, as Irún has a good selection of shops. Afterwards, we will go for some bars. But first, we will retrace our steps to see the following buildings.
