Jaw-dropping Splendor: La Giralda Bell Tower and Seville Cathedral in Seville!

La Giralda bell tower at the Seville Cathedral is a stunning site to behold in Seville! Seville Cathedral is one of the most iconic landmarks in Spain, having been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. The construction of the cathedral began in 1402 and was completed in 1519, taking more than 100 years to build. It was built on the site of an old mosque, making it unique among other cathedrals throughout Europe in its blend of both Gothic and Moorish architectural styles. But Seville Cathedral is not just famous for its architecture and artwork. It is also the final resting place of Christopher Columbus, with his remains having been moved here in 1537. Not only that, Seville Cathedral holds the title of being the largest gothic cathedral in the world, as well as one of the most impressive examples of Spanish Renaissance architecture.
