Seville Cathedral, in Andalucia, Spain

http://tourvideos.com/ The cathedral of Seville, Spain, is the world’s largest Gothic church -- unbelievably huge and amazingly beautiful. There are so many tall columns holding up the lofty ceiling 130 feet above the floor that it seems like you are strolling through a vast, indoor stone forest. This grand church is located of course in the center of the historic Old Town with several prominent landmarks next to it: the Archives building and the Archbishop's Palace. Situated on a broad plaza, it's also located right next to the Alcázar Palace.
The cathedral was built so large in order to demonstrate Seville's wealth, as it had become a major trading center in the Middle Ages after the Reconquista in 1248. They were also in competition with the Muslims who were still in control of Granada with their Alhambra Palace and Córdoba with the great Mosque. Seville's Cathedral was part of this political competition of status rivalry.
