Catedral de Sevilla

This majestic Cathedral dates back to the 15th century and claims to be the third largest building of its kind in the world.

Reviewed By WineEng - Green Valley, United States

This is THE site to visit when in Sevilla. Absolutely enormous, the largest gothic cathedral in the world consists of the main cathedral, many chapels, a small treasury and many memorials plus the converted bell tower. When busy, it’s much better to have purchased tickets in advance or be prepared to wait in long lines to hope to buy a ticket. It takes 2 1/2 - 3 hours to visit everything while stopping to enjoy the varied architecture. A Columbus is buried here so some come to see that. The organ has four banks with over 7000 pipes and can be heard at specific times during the week. Fantastic piece of history. Cheers!

Malaga Cathedral

Reviewed By Irishgirlabroad - Malaga, Spain

A visit to Málaga Cathedral should be on everyone’s list of things to do and see in Málaga! The cost of entry varies according to age and the option you choose but all include headphones with a multilingual guide handset. It is simple to operate and you can follow the planned numbered route around the Cathedral (including the main steps outside) at your own pace. I would suggest you allow at least 90 minutes to wander around and sit to take in the sheer scale of the building and to appreciate the artwork and architecture. A little known option is that there are a couple of tours a day that take you up onto the roof of the cathedral ( you will need to check at the reception desk for the times and plan accordingly .. you then buy a ticket which includes the roof tour). For me this was the highlight of our visit. There are approx 200 stone steps to climb so flat, comfortable shoes are a must but the spectacle 360 degree views over the city of Malaga were well worth it.

Ermita de Nuestra Senora de los Remedios

Reviewed By ThewanderingLoiner - Malaga, Spain

The park was opened in 2014 and for the most part is lovely and cleen with lots of flowers in the summer. Alot of money has been spent by the council in velez and its turned it into a really lovely place to visit. The views of velez from the different miradors are cracking and the ermita its self is a must with its very unique paintings. Easiest way to reach on foot is go past the san francisco food market, upto the right past the palacio and cross over the road and the sign post is there. There is parking if you have mobility issues.but its a pretty easy uphil 5 min walk. There is sign posts for a cafe and toilets but i guess they never bothered as we havnt food them. Maybe they only open in the summer.

Guadix Cathedral

Reviewed By BubaJ - Tbilisi, Georgia

A marvelous cathedral in the centre on this very special town. The time spent in the church will be remembered for long - we were lucky to be given a lovely presentation of the cathedral history by the charismatic priest and then to climb to the bell chamber to enjoy a breathtaking view of the town. A great place, not to be missed if you are in Guadix.
