Un paseo por la ciudad

The Scores es una calle paralela a la costa, la cual

conduce desde la catedral hasta Old Course. A lo

lardo de ella, podemos apreciar las ruinas del casti-

llo, el Mar del Norte, la iglesia, el monumento a los

Mártires, el Museo de la Universidad, y la playa de

West Sands.

En South Street encontramos la catedral, el West Port

–que es la puerta de entrada a la ciudad medieval-, Town

Hall, el Madras College ymúltiples opciones para compras.

En North Street están los edificios de San Salva-

dor, el college, la iglesia y la torre. Por su parte, Market

Street es una calle central y repleta de tiendas, donde

destaca su impactante fuente victoriana.

Escenarios de producciones cinematográficas como

£Carros de Fuego¤, nos llaman a pasear por las playas de

St. Andrews ya que es una experiencia renovadora.

No es sólo el paraíso playero, son los mercadi-

tos, paseos y detalles de las calles cercanas lo que

hace de este destino mucho más que arena, mar y

sol. Incluso el mar de St. Andrews parece dar tes-

timonio de su antigüedad e imponente relevancia

en el mundo.

A stroll through the city

The Scores is a street that runs parallel along the

coast, which takes on from the cathedral to the Old

Course. Along this trial, one can admire the ruins

of the castle, the North Sea, the church, the monu-

ment of the martyrs, the museum of the univer-

sity, and the West Sands beach.

On South Street, we find the cathedral, West

Port—which is the entrance to the medieval city—

Town Hall, Madras College, and various businesses.

On North Street are the San Salavador buildings,

the college, the church, and the tower. For its part,

Market Street is a main road, and it’s filled with shops,

St Andrews picturesque white beaches and

dunes have served as sets for films such as

“Chariots of Fire”

Not to be outdone, the Sea imposes itself on the

city, and as ancient as the University might be, the

Sea has seen it all: the university’s foundation, it’s

near destruction and its renovation. The Sea will

forever be relevant to Saint Andrews, as Saint An-

drews will forever be relevant to the world.
