Giralda, a 12th century tower attached to the cathedral

Sevilla's cathedral, having the intended effect of "Let us create such a building that future generations will take us for lunatics" its builders wanted

Inside the cathedral

High ceilings - it's the biggest church in the world by volume

Big pipe organ

The bottom of the organ is way bigger than my garage

Stained glass in the back corner

A big altar behind a big gate

Detailed ceiling

Columbus' tomb. Or somebody else who used to be buried in Cuba at least.
