Pamplona, the heart of Navarre, is a city steeped in history and charm. Nestled in a valley, its origins date back to the late Bronze to early Iron Age, with its legendary foundation by Roman general Pompey around 75 BC. This magnificent city flourished as one of the capitals of the Kingdom of Navarre, transforming through turbulent times, including Visigoth and Moorish rule, into the vibrant locale famed for the annual running of the bulls during the San Fermín festival. This festival has become an iconic symbol of Pamplona, made famous by Ernest Hemingway's novel, The Sun Also Rises.
