Interesting architecturally. I particularly enjoyed the spectacular, massive, 16th century, carved alabaster altar back
The interior is always busy but this does not lessen the wonderful, holy, atmosphere. Very relaxing - I fell asleep on a pew.
The little museum in a side room displays some of the gifts that have been given to the shrine ...

This large cathedral has a very interesting history and is beautiful! It has a very sacred atmosphere. There is a constant flow of pilgrims with masses throughout the day, as well as confession. The plaza outside the cathedral is on a busy avenue with many people coming and going. Lots of pigeons! Look for the religious art shops that sell some of the most beautiful creches I have ever seen!
