I've mentioned before that I am not at all religious (although I am a self-proclaimed non-practicing Catholic.) But whenever I visit a foreign city who happens to have a historical church, I make it a point to make a quick stop.
It is a beautiful cathedral. The detail and the work that went in it is incredible. There was a lot of love put into its walls, ceilings, even pillars. I ended up spending more time in here than I intended just looking at the intricate work that went into it.
I didn't want to leave without making a donation - even a small one at that - if only to help maintain its stature.
They say (not sure who "they" are) that at anytime you visit a church for the first time, you can make three wishes. So, I did that as well.
TIP: There are plenty of souvenir stands outside. I assume they've gotten the approval of the church, so that's where we got a few things (vs. the market or anywhere else outside its walls.)
A popular spot for tourists and locals alike. Highly recommending.
