Very peaceful place with lots of historical value. It’s required to buy tickets to enter the cathedral. There are many volunteers to help you to see around the cathedral. Anyone can enjoy on their own. So many schools are giving tours. Its a very vast place. There is a nice cafe located for quick bites.

A place of contemplation and beautiful architecture that allows you to feel the weight of your faith. No matter what that faith may be. A place of worship and boundless beauty that leaves only love in your heart. I am truly thankful that I was allowed to contribute to the upkeep of this cathedral and see its history with my own eyes.
