Seville - Geralda Tower & Cathedral

Wednesday continued

Back to the Cathedral which was now officially open…..entry charge now, and climbed the Giralda Tower, which dominates the city skyline. The tower started as a minaret in Moorish times, and then was redesigned as the bell tower of the gothic Cathedral. Instead of stairs, the climb to the top is via 35 gently sloping ramps, wide enough for 2 mounted guards to pass apparently. Spectacular views of the city.

Periodic checks on the car revealed a very full car park, attendants, but no sign of a ticket or clamping. We even checked with Tourist Information, who said it was probably cheap parking for local residents, but assured us there was “no free parking in Seville”
