1. Calle Estafeta Marker
La calle Estafeta es, sin duda, la calle mas famosa de Pamplona, mundialmente conocida porque por ella pasan los encierros de los Sanfermines.
Su nombre le viene porque en le siglo XIX estuvo aqui la primera estafeta de correos de Pamplona.
Tiene dos partes bien diferenciadas; en la primera, desde la curva con la calle Mercaderes, donde habitualmente chocan los toros de forma spectacular hasta la Bajada de Javier. Existen pequeños comercios y locales, con mención especial para Pastas Beatriz, el Churrero de Lerín o la cuchillería Gómez.
La segunda parte, desde la Bajada de Javier y ya enfilando hacia la Plaza de Toros es mas gastronómico. Bares a los dos lados de la calle con barras atestadas de banderillas, que hacen las delicias de locales y visitantes.

The Estafeta street is undoubtedly the most famous street of Pamplona, famous worldwide as it is crossed the running of the San Fermin festival.
Its name comes because in the nineteenth century was here the first post office in Pamplona. It has two distinct parts; the first, from the curve with Merchants Street, where the bulls usually collide spectacularly, to the Bajada de Javier. There are small comerciosl locale with special reference to pasta Beatriz, the Churrero Gómez de Lerin or knives.
The second part of the street, from the fall of Javier and already heading towards the Plaza de Toros is gastronomic. Bars on both sides of the street with flags crowded bars, which are the delight of locals and visitors.
La rue Estafeta est sans doute la rue la plus connue de Pampelune, mondialement connue car les encierros de Pampelune passent par elle.
Son nom vient de fait qu'ua XIXéme siécle,
