The wider view of the city is average. Church itself is nice and we'll maintained. The money generated at the entrance, we think. The facility of a locker would have been great.
Its free in the morning, but you can leave a donation. our bags were checked by security at the entrance. There were some people praying, so quietness is paramount. So much to look at, grand church i...

This magnificient 700-year-old cathedral is one of the best examples of Gothic architecture in Spain. Some of the porters who helped build the cathedral have been rendered in sculpture on the main doors of the building. Some are held in Catalan and Spanish on most days.
Huge basilica in a beautiful plaza. It is free to get in (after 5pm for sure and maybe all the time).
You can walk from the apartment to this beautiful cathedral. The most beautiful in the city!!
This elegant 14th-century church will take your breath away. Don’t be put off by the somewhat austere exterior – the basilica inside is similarly sparse but simply spellbinding. The church is constructed in the Catalan Gothic style; a three-nave structure with the side naves half the width of the central one. Aim to visit on a Sunday – if you’re lucky, you might catch a wedding ceremony being performed inside. There are also concerts that take place here regularly (check the schedule in advance for full details).
At short distance by foot, you will find one of the most beautiful Gothic church of Europe, its unique proportions, exterior perspective, interior lights, like the streets and the life around in the picturesque Born, an area full of art and artists like history.
A beautiful example of gothic architecture. This basilica is truly a testament to the ingenuity of the engineers. The way the medieval neighborhood grew up around the church almost makes it feel constrained on the outside. But through the masterful design it is spacious and filled with light once you enter
