NOIA

This summer I stayed in Noia, it is known by a lot of things such as its big beaches (Testal, Boa, Taramancos...), its shops (Noia has a shopping centre), its churches (such as San Martiño Church, Santa María A Nova Church...), its landscape (for example, in my case, I went to San Lois forest, where I could see the view of all the village), its history an its kind people.

I would like to point out that Noia has an estuary "Ría de Muros e Noia"; in the olden days the estuary was the income´s source, however nowadays the estuary is very dirty and it is imposible fishing to eat. From my point of view this situation makes the image of Noia degrade. I think that it will be very important to take a decision to control the estuary: cleaning it, keeping an eye on the estuary to prevent that this situation happens again.

Near Noia there are a lot of places (such as Ribeira, Rianxo, Muros, Camariñas, Muxía...) that are also attractive; you can pron to stay in the hotels of the village because Noia is in a central position respect to them.

Noia receives a great deal of tourists from all parts of the world, I met french, italian, english and deutch people. In this way, the tourism means a large part of the village´s income.
