    Amazing Cathedral, totally worth it. It is being restored on the outside so you cant really see the facade but the interior is amazing. You cant get in with uncovered shoulders or very short skirts or shorts.
  • By Madlen Karlíková
    Nice church but in time of mine visit it was repairing, so I was a little bit dissappointed, because I could not see the famous fasade. And do not visit it between 12:00 - 13:00, the main inside part of the church is closed and you can visit only the hall. Over all the church was beautiful but there were many circumstances, so I can not give it 5 stars. But if you are in Gonoa you must visit it.
