=== Religion === {{See also|Holy Week in Spain}} [[Image:Domingo de ramos astorga.jpg|thumb|220px|Holy Week in [[Astorga, Spain|Astorga]]]] Spain is an important place for [[Catholicism]]. In fact, some of the holiest places for the Catholic Church are in Spain: city of [[Santiago de Compostela]] in [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]] (North-West Spain), the third holiest place after the [[Vatican City]] in Rome and [[Jerusalem]]. It is also the terminus of the [[Way of Saint James]]. [[Santo Toribio de Liébana]], [[Cantabria]] (also in North Spain) is the fourth, followed by [[Caravaca de la Cruz]] at the South-East, (fifth holiest place). These places attract pilgrims and tourists from all over the world. Religion also has found its artistic expression through the popular [[Holy Week]] processions, which become important in almost every town, [[Seville]] arguably holds some of the most elaborate [[Holy Week in Seville|processions for Holy Week]].<ref>Webster, Susan Verdi (1998).
