What to Do in Zaragoza

Zaragoza stands out out as having the finest examples of Muslim architecture in Spain outside of Andalusia. If you can't make it down to Granada or Cordoba, Zaragoza is the next best thing, with the Aljafer�a castle being the highlight. Also, check out the old city walls and the Basilica de Nuestra Senora del Pilar.
