Segovia Cathedral is the last Gothic cathedral in Spain, with a main tower and several small spires highlighting the nobility of the church, also known as the "lady of Spanish churches".

Gothic Cathedral
It is located at Calle Marques del Arco, 1, 40001 Segovia, which was built in the mid 16th century. The Gothic-style Roman church dedicated to Virgin Mary.
It replaced the Old Cathedral that is located in the current gardens of Alcazar, which was destroyed during the war of the Communities in 1520.
In the west, next to Enlosado, is the main facade, its entrance is known as Puerta del Perdon, with the sculpture of Virgin. The door of San Geroteo is located at the southern facades that was finished in the 18th century. In the north we will see the Puerta de San Frutos built in honor of the patron saint of the city.
The Cathedral of Segovia has an ambulatory structure, beautiful windows with fine tracery and stained glass windows of exceptional quality.

[Segovia Cathedral]
Cathedral is a Gothic late-style church built in the 15th-16th century. It is also the last Gothic church built in Spain. It is extremely elegant and looks like a church. Also known as the "dame of the cathedral." The Grand Lady church is located on the Plaza Mayor, where visitors come and go, and many small restaurants in the square provide visitors with an excellent church landscape lunch. The
church tower is 86 meters high, and countless spires grow around it. Visually, every small spire is extending in the direction of the sky. The church blends different architectural styles, which were rare in the buildings at the time. It is the ancient Roman style of Segovia. Inside the church is the cemetery of Prince Pedro, the son of Henry II. The granite floor is engraved with inscriptions.
[Photograph] The cloisters of many buildings in Spain are horrible. The cloister of the Cathedral of Segovia is also a long column separating the interior and exterior. The lace-like carving above the stone pillar makes the whole The gallery looks very elegant. Rainy rain and wet indoor cloister must also be a beautiful picture. The sunny day changes with the light, the light and shadow of the indoor floor changes accordingly. Walk back to the ancient atmosphere for one second, imagine yourself holding the robe. Going to the garden to see the flowers, if there is no war in the days of the ancients, it is indeed the place of poetry.

Catedral de Segovia has the reputation of the lady in the cathedral and is the last Gothic cathedral built in Spain. Its bell tower is 88 meters high and is the tallest clock tower in Spain. The queen of Isabella I, the greatest queen in Spanish history, the queen of Castile, was crowned here on the throne.
I thought that I couldn't climb to the top here. I just asked the door when I bought the ticket at the door. I didn't expect to be able to climb the tower. Only the tower here has to follow the commentary. Only 3 groups can enter every day, the time is 10

Segovia Cathedral, located in the small town of Segovia in the suburbs of Madrid, Spain, is not only the last Gothic church built in Spain, but also the "Grandma in the Cathedral". From a distance, the Cathedral of Segovia, the minaret stands as if it can pass through every spire to reach the heavens of the believers, creating an abrupt and spectacular picture. It is an ancient belief and an architectural masterpiece that has been inherited to this day. The Jewish defensive clock tower can be seen near the church. Their windows are very small, so that the outside can be clearly seen from the inside, but the outside cannot be seen. There are many small handicraft shops around the church that are perfect for hanging out. z
