I like the outside part. It was supposed to have two towers, but only has 1/2 tower, which gives it an interesting imperfection that I find quite beautiful. In the evening, the sun shines in the cathedral, and it gives it a gold appearance. The only thing i didn't like that much was the interior. I dont like the white color, and it is kinda empty inside. Some parts seem well decorated, but others dont have anything, just white paint.

The cathedral is really beautiful. I definitely recommend that you listen to the free audio guide that they offer you at the entrance to the cathedral because it is very interesting and does not last too long, about 45 minutes.

Unique design! Built for almost 200 years with a mixture of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles, it is considered the most important building of the Spanish Renaissance. The interior is very impressive, with its richly decorated side chapels. You will also find here many paintings by artists of that time (Memling, Weyden). A Spanish saying goes that if you haven't seen Granada, you haven't seen anything and the cathedral is one of the city's symbols.

A really impressive Cathedral church. It has a very unique façade and a nice bright white interior. You can buy the tickets online or at the door, there shouldn't be a long wait as, it seems, not that many tourists are visiting the place. The interior is very large and impressive, though not as impressive as the Seville cathedral.

Ist einen Besuch wert, wenn man das ganze Touristische Drumherum mit in Kauf nimmt.
Online die Tickets buchen, dann wird es entspannter.
Giralda muss man nicht besuchen, da gibt es bessere Aussichtspunkte. Zu viel Gedränge und einfach zu viele Besucher auf einen Haufen.
In der riesigen Kathedrale verläuft sich alles etwas.
Für sie sollte man sich Zeit mitbringen

Grand Cathedral with an unique altar that opens to more than just the front. Beautiful inside, lovely architecture and informative audio guide.

Suggest buy the 5 tickets together.

The granda cathedral was built on a former mosque after Queen Isabel defeated the Moors. Most of the cathedral you visit in Europe is Gothic style, this one is not. The first thing you notice are the columns, massive, masculine, chiseled. This church was built to make a point to the masses and Moors and is visually beautiful and intimidating. Take it in and enjoy.

Like the Monastery of San Geronimo, beautiful and impressive.
But in my humble opinion, not in the same league as the cathedrals of Toledo, Cordoba, or Seville.
It's still one of the main places that you must see or visit in Granada and as such not to be missed in any case..
