I was fortunate to visit both the cathedral and the bell tower of the Cathedral of Santa Maria. The inside of the cathedral is stunning and ornate, but not crazy in terms of it being ostentatious. There is an extreme reverence as you walk around and considering the various chapels. The architecture both inside and out is stunning and its various styles, because of a number of various things that occurred when it was being built, are both interesting and beautiful. If you decide to take the bell tower tour, you will be glad you did. The tour is in Spanish, but there is a really helpful English handout that will tell you most everything you would hear from your tour guide. It is 19 floors up and the majority of it is a rather shallow sloping ramp, so it is reasonable if you concerned because of health. There is a small tower staircase at the top to get to the bell tower, but it is not long and it is certainly worth the visit. I was fortunate to go with some local people, but met Americans in our group. It was well worth the two or so hours I spent both inside and out. There are a number of wonderful little places to eat near by if you need to wait.
