Cathedrals (by Alex L.)

We've seen lots cathedrals while we are here in Spain. Many of them are Gothic. Spain has the biggest Catholic cathedral in the world (located in Seville). The photo on the right/below is only a little bit of it. Most cathedrals are full of tourists, you have to pay to get in. In Toledo every 5 min. there was a guard calling out loudly "NO FLASH!". You can see why almost none
of the people come there to worship.

Most cathedrals get lit up at night, which is my favorite time to go there. Look at the Burgos cathedral picture on the top to see what I mean (we didn't take this picture). The picture at the bottom I told Mom to take to show how tall a cathedral is, and it shows looking up one of the huge pillars in Salamanca's cathedral.
