This is a very interesting cathedral to visit. The external architecture is of Medieval style and has intricate carvings. The highlights inside include the choir and organs, the main chapel, the Main Sacristy, the Deep Chapel and the Jamete Arch. The admission staff provided us a map with the highlights of the cathedral and free audio guide, which were helpful for us to understand the history behind the different parts of the Cathedral. There was also a tower, which you can go up, near the exit of the cathedral. It is about a four storey climb and you can see the surrounding area at the top.

We almost left Cuenca without visiting this church. They were preparing a weeding but they were very kind to let us visit. It is very simple but impressive. It takes a good effort to climb back the stairs from the sanctuary back to Cuenca
