The Way of St Andrews (Spanish: El Camino de Saint Andrews, French: Chemin de Saint-Andrews, German: der Weg von Saint Andrews, Italian: il cammino di Saint Andrews) is the revived (as of 2012) Christian pilgrimage route that leads to St Andrews Cathedral in Fife, on the east coast of Scotland, UK, where the relics of the apostle, Saint Andrew, were once kept. The pilgrimage to St Andrews has much in common with the famous pilgrimage, "The Camino", to the great cathedral city of Santiago de Compostela in north-west Spain, which annually draws over 200,000 pilgrims from all over the world. Both pilgrimages are dedicated to apostles (St James and St Andrew), both these saints were adopted as patron saints after miraculous intervention in crucial battles, and both Santiago and St Andrews are in remote areas of great natural beauty. ==St Andrew== According to the New Testament Andrew was the brother of Simon Peter, and a fishermen. The Gospel of John states that Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist. Based on statements of John, Andrew recognized Jesus as the Messiah, and introduce his brother to him. In the gospels, Andrew is mentioned as telling Jesus about the boy with the loaves and fishes (John 6:8). Origen says Andrew preached in Scythia. He is also said to have preached along the Black Sea and the Dnieper river as far as Kiev, and Novgorod. According to tradition, he founded the See of Byzantium (Constantinople). He is also said to have preached in Thrace.〔Encyclopedia of early Christianity by Everett Ferguson, p. 51.〕
