The On - Off of Girona Cathedral

* The author is part of the community of readers of La Vanguardia

I share in the Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia these photographs of the Girona Cathedral captured from the red bridge in two moments: at 00:30 hours with the lights on (On) and minutes later, with the lights off and reflections in the river (Off).

The red bridge of Les Peixateries Velles offers a very emblematic picture of the city: the view over the Onyar river, the brightly colored houses and the cathedral in the background.

The name of the Les Peixateries Velles bridge refers to the fact that the city's fish markets or fish market were located in this place for many centuries.

The cathedral of Santa María de Girona is located at the highest point of the city. It has the widest Gothic nave in the world, with a total width of 22.98 meters.

The temple hides many jewels beyond its dimensions, details of the interior and exterior that are worth discovering and rediscovering at different times of the day.
