Top 10 Historic Sites in Casco Antiguo, Aragon
A rich blend of the historic and modern, Zaragoza sits on the banks of the Ebro River. Stroll in the center of town near San Miguel's pedestrian ways or around the Plaza de los Sitios, where you find boutiques, markets and souvenir shops. A center for gastronomy, Zaragoza offers food and drink for every budget and taste. But tapas is a must! In 2008, Zaragoza hosted the International Exhibition; the Water Tower, Bridge Pavilion and River Aquarium show off of the city's avant-garde architecture.

Breathtaking, Awe-Inspiring, Magnificent, these are just a few words to describe this Amazing Cathedral!!! From the statuary to the artwork, the pews to the ceilings, I was at a loss for words!! This Church still holds services and I was lucky enough to be there to observe and pray, and though the service was in Spanish it was a beautiful and spiritual experience. Inside, a Roman-style pillar is topped by a statue of the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus that dates from the fifteenth century. It is housed in a chapel of marble, jasper, and gilded bronze that forms almost a church-within-a-church. You can also go to the back of the chapel, where people can kneel and kiss the pillar itself. It is a must see for anyone!!

Compared with its neighboring and imposing Basilica of the Pillar, the Cathedral doesn´t impress from the outside. Once inside, you´ll be astonished with its collection or remarkable chancels, all around the temple´s periphery and also around the choir. And you can´t leave the church without visiting the Tapestries Museum. It´s a must for their quantity, quality and preservation state.
