Dating from the 11th to the 19th centuries, the cathedral showcases a mix of architectural styles, from its Romanesque monastery to its grand Baroque façade. The cathedral's most impressive feature is its expansive Gothic nave, which at 22 meters (72 feet) wide, is the largest of its kind in the world.
5. Marvel the colorful façades of the houses on the shores of the Onyar River that flows through the city and engenders this warm atmosphere of colored houses and symbolic image of Girona. You will enjoy various and beautiful panoramic views, either from the various bridges that cross Onyar river or from the top of the medieval walls of the city.
6. One of the bridges was designed by the famous Gustave Eiffel in 1877. The modern feel of the ironclad Eiffel Bridge contrasts sharply with the old buildings of the city.
