ZGZ is culture
#ZGZisCulture, Zaragoza is CULTURE, with capital letters.
Culture is the engine that makes the city vibrate.
Added to the historical-artistic heritage are culture and art in their different forms of expression, always present in the streets and corners of the city.
Dance, theater, urban art festivals, markets, craft fairs, concerts in squares, street entertainment, etc., that do not forget any time of the year.
In addition, culture and gastronomy come together in the form of gastronomic visits to introduce the tapas culture or unique spaces such as the Central Market and the old Zaragozana factory, where you will discover the origin of Ámbar beer.
