Visit the world's largest Gothic cathedral: Seville Cathedral

Seville is a must-see destination with its architectural marvel, the Seville Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See. It is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and the third-largest church overall. The grandeur and magnificence of the cathedral's exterior reflect the historical prosperity of Seville. The cathedral showcases classic Gothic architectural elements such as pointed arches, flying buttresses, rose windows, stained glass, flamboyant decorations, and serrated spires. The light and airy intersecting stone ribs and the impressive height are all hallmarks of Gothic architecture that can be seen in Seville Cathedral. Inside the cathedral, visitors will find the world's largest altarpiece, composed of 45 intricate and detailed relief panels. These panels depict 45 scenes from the life of Jesus, featuring over 1,000 carved figures, all adorned with gold, earning it the nickname 'Golden Bible.' The opulence and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring. Admission is €9.5, and it is recommended to join a guided tour. The tour not only provides detailed insights but also takes you to the rooftop of the cathedral, offering various perspectives to appreciate the beauty of the cathedral and experience the charm of Seville.
