The Basilica of Our Lady of Pilar is the core area of the city and the most important cathedral in the city. It has a very important status and history. You can apply to visit the interior of the church, which is full of sculptures and artistic structures, which is very good.
Like many churches in Spain, the Basilica of Our Lady of Pilar has undergone reconstruction and expansion in different periods and styles to eventually form the current Baroque art treasure with 11 domes and 4 high towers.

The Aljafilia Palace is said to be a very important historical figure. Its introduction is not very clear. From some pictures, the palace is nice and luxurious, but it was also a large complex of buildings in history, and many of them are well preserved.
A very solid city, and also a very representative Spanish historical building. The environment of the palace is very special, with very rich historical resources. You can see a very rich history here, and it is also a very important structure.
[Price ratio] It is worth seeing the situation
[Scenery] The scenery is good

The Zaragoza Bridge crosses the Ebro River, behind the Pilar Square. When the sun sets, you can see the bridge from afar, which gives you a sense of history. It is said that the bridge was built in the 15th century and was destroyed by a flood in the middle of 1643. It was rebuilt in 1659. In the 18th century, architects reinforced the river bank to protect the bridge from floods. The reconstruction of this bridge has important economic significance for the development of Spain.
An arch bridge built of stone, with three huge stone caves. The entire structure of the stone bridge is very solid and it is also a very unique building. It is quite nice to visit here and feel the huge stone style.
[Cost-effectiveness] A very strong area
[Scenery] The scenery is also very beautiful
[Fun] Very interesting
