I have had to decide between two strong candidates for the letter G, Granada in Andalusia and Girona in Catalonia.
I have picked Girona…
Eventually and inevitably we arrived in the square in front of Santa Maria Cathedral whose Baroque façade conceals an austere Gothic interior that was built around a previous Romanesque church, of which the cloisters and a single tower remain.
We found the energy to climb the steps from the square to the Cathedral but once there Kim declined the opportunity to go inside and left me to visit the interior of the building alone and see the World’s widest Gothic nave and the second widest overall after St. Peter’s in Rome.
This, by the way is the Cathedral in Granada…
I also considered the Royal Monastery in Guadalupe but that technically isn’t a Cathedral so that would be cheating and I have to save my cheating for later…
Much preferred Granada, !!!

Can’t believe you’re going to cheat. I like looking inside cathedrals and don’t agree they’re all the same (as you quote in the older post). You could just as well say shops or bars are all the same!

I enjoy visiting Cathedrals, they are unique in the moment but if you showed me say 10 pictures of Cathedral interiors that I have visited then I would struggle to identify them.
Shops are all the same.
