The companies VIBASA and ALSA have lines from different cities in\n        Spain, such as Madrid.\n      <\/p>\n      <div>\n        <div>\n  <iframe loading=\"lazy\"\n    src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=1o4Dmo2Tfg1od7EzFASLnba3sz7F06iY&amp;ehbc=2E312F\"\n    width=\"640\"\n    height=\"480\"\n    alt=\"Mapa Monforte de Lemos\"\n  ><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div id=\"toVisitSection\">\n      <div>\n        <h2 class=\"p-h2-town\">History \/ Culture<\/h2>\n        <hr \/>\n        <h3 class=\"p-h3-town\">What to see<\/h3>\n      <\/div>\n      <div>\n        <div class=\"accordion\">\n          <div class=\"accordion__menu\">\n            <nav>\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion active\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Colegio de los Padres Escolapios<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Burgo Medieval y Juder\u00eda<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Centro del Vino de la Ribeira Sacra<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Monasterio San Vicente do Pino<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Monasterio de San Salvador<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Museo de Arte Sacro de las Madres Clarisas<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Museo del Ferrocarril<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Palacio Condal<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Pazo Molinos de Antero<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Ponte Vella<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n\n              <button class=\"nav-tab-accordion\">\n                <span>&#10093;<\/span>\n                <span>Torre del Homenaje<\/span>\n              <\/button>\n            <\/nav>\n          <\/div>\n\n          <div class=\"accordion__accordion-content\">\n            <div>\n              <div>\n                <h4>Colegio de los Padres Escolapios<\/h4>\n                <p>\n                  The school of the Piarist Fathers was created by Cardinal Rodrigo de Castro, son\n                  of the III Countess of Lemos D\u00aa Beatriz de Castro and Count Don \u00c1lvaro de Osorio.\n                  The school, in the Herrerian style, was built by several architects.\n                <\/p>\n\n                <p>\n                  From this school currently highlights its cloister, built in Doric style with\n                  fluted columns and frieze ornamented with triglyphs and metopes.
