Stunning towering buildings

Andalucia Tour ~ Cadiz The ornate Cadiz Cathedral, with its yellow dome, is a Baroque-neoclassical building of stunning proportions. You can climb to the top of the cathedral's east tower, Torre del Reloj, from where you can enjoy a stunning panoramic view of the old town. The main facade consists of two octagonal towers in Baroque and Neoclassical styles. The dome is striking for its yellow glazed tiles, and on its base stand sculptures of the four evangelists. The temple is in the shape of a Latin cross, with three naves and sixteen chapels. The nave is divided by oval columns with fluted Corinthian columns at either end. Of note is the elaborately inlaid wooden choir and, in the crypt below, the tomb of Manuel de Falla, a famous 20th-century Cadiz composer. The museum is also worth a visit, containing priceless tables, paintings, ivories and sculptures, as well as tabernacles, chalices and other important gold and silver vessels, mostly dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. #NovemberDestinations2024 #SpainTravel #Andalucia #ReligiousBuildings #Cathedral
