Sur, Administrative district in Logroño, Spain
Sur is a district in the south of Logroño that stretches from the Francisco de la Mata Wall to the municipal boundary. It combines residential areas, green spaces, and was built at different times with varying structures.
The area grew from older neighborhoods like San Antonio and was later expanded with modern districts such as Ciudad de Santiago. This development shows how the city spread southward and needed new residential areas.
The district sits along the Santiago Pilgrimage Route, where travelers from many countries pass through and shape its character. This connection to pilgrimage is visible in daily life, even though not all residents are pilgrims themselves.
The railway line forms the northern border while Avenue of Burgos marks the western limit, with multiple access points to different parts of the city. Good connections make it easy to move between areas and reach Logroño's center.
The newer areas of El Arco and La Cava feature pedestrian zones surrounded by green spaces, with a different character from older parts. These newer locations invite walking and show how modern urban development has been carried out here.
